composition

Less abstract than its forebears. N°5 L'EAU radiates citrus like sun-drenched honey. Top notes of lemon. mandarin and orange are propelled by aldehydes. followed by a profusion of flowers. Rose melds with airy jasmine and a touch of ylang-ylang. more modern than ever. Behind this floral whirlwind. vetiver and cedar impart a novel dynamism. softened by white musk notes. Never has N°5 been so fresh.
