The story behind this fragrance
Sikkim by Lancôme is a Oriental Floral fragrance for women. Sikkim was launched in 1971. The nose behind this fragrance is Robert Gonnon. Top notes are Galbanum, Aldehydes, Caraway, Gardenia and Bergamot; middle notes are Carnation, Rose, Narcissus, Iris and Jasmine; base notes are Oakmoss, Leather, Vetiver, Patchouli, Amber and Coconut. This fragrance became the part of the perfume collection “La Collection Fragrances”, which was launched to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the perfume tradition of the house of Lancôme. The elegant, transparent bottles of La Collection perfumes were designed in the early 1970s by George Delhomme, one of the founders of the house of Lancôme. Sikkim is an oriental floral fragrance, launched in 1971. The notes are ylang-ylang, jasmine, oak moss and galbanum. It is the scent of a legendary kingdom. The sun goes down behind the Himalayas, a princess, enchanted by the smell of ylang-ylang and jasmine, dreams in her beautiful palace with a magic garden view. The balcony, bathed in moonlight, brings the scent of galbanum, delicate as a kiss, together with the smell of warm oak moss. The princess, slim and elegant, goes out to the balcony only to inhale this magic, oriental night, to become one with it.
