An impressionist perfume by Jean-Claude Ellena, ANGÉLIQUES SOUS LA PLUIE captures the fleeting beauty of a bouquet of angelica shimmering with droplets of water.
More than a fragrance, this is a feeling. The fragile beauty of a bouquet of angelica picked after the rain, captured in a subtle trail that blends with the skin. Like a painter, Jean-Claude Ellena sketches his subject in minimal strokes: he takes the herbaceous notes of angelica, and he adds the spice of juniper berries. The spicy coolness of pink peppercorns. The clear vibrancy of cedar. And the fluffy cotton texture of white musk blurring it all together, suggestive of water colours in faded shades of mauve and grey. An elusive sensory feeling, an awareness of rare poetry.
Apply fragrance to clean skin after showering, targeting pulse points such as wrists and behind the neck for optimal scent diffusion. Use a non-scented moisturizer first to prolong fragrance life. Avoid direct application on clothes and sensitive skin to prevent irritation and preserve the integrity of the scent.
