Our view
Tenue de Soirée celebrates a confident, free and joyful seduction: the kind that shines with panache and without calculation. The perfume opens on a fruity, spicy burst before jasmine, rose and iris compose a luminous floral heart. The night then reveals a sophisticated chypre patchouli, softened by praline and musks, for a resolutely modern trail.
