En Passant
Description
The story behind this fragrance
En Passant opens with a crisp, almost green-vegetable sharpness—calamus and galbanum cutting through bright citrus and basil like a chess move caught mid-air. Cucumber and watery notes lift it further, while banana adds an unexpected fruit-forward sweetness before the composition softens into a warm, honeyed floral heart: carnation and lily-of-the-valley bloom alongside jasmine and rose, grounded by petitgrain's subtle spice. The base settles into amber and sandalwood, with wheat adding a grain-like texture and musk anchoring the whole thing in a creamy, skin-like finish touched with vanilla and cedar.
