L'Eau Eau de Toilette

UnisexBy Desmond Knox-LeetRated 3.9/5 · 612 reviews

cinnamon · rose

Cinnamon opens the bottle, and rose slips in almost at once. Geranium brings a green freshness to the heart, then clove and sandalwood settle into a warm, woody base. Wear it on late autumn evenings, when the air cools and the spice lingers on the skin.
