California Réverie

FeminineBy Antoine MaisondieuRated 4.2/5 · 2,276 reviews

neroli · mandarin orange

California Réverie opens on neroli and mandarin, a citrus freshness that soon blooms. At its heart, jasmine sambac and frangipani draw a white, tropical bouquet. The base of beeswax and vanilla stays soft and enveloping. Wear it on warm summer days, when the light turns golden and the trail follows your steps.
