INSTITUT TRÈS BIEN

Floral fragrance

This appealing scent of amber — the warmest and most sensual of turn-of-the-century olfactory families — draws its finesse from its high-quality ingredients. Powdery amber notes from the novel union of ambergris, Madagascar vanilla, and Somali incense. Ivory Coast bergamot and Sicily lemon add a fresh touch to the thrill sparked at the first breath. Then a signature note of floral elegance — Egyptian jasmine and Bulgarian rose — infuses the room with a delicious aroma, a timeless moment.

Warm & Sensual. I proceed into the beauty care rooms, an intimate space where only clients and beauticians were admitted. Instantly a scent strikes me as familiar: remnants of the Cologne à la russe. A delightful amber vestige soaring out of rice powders and brushes and puffs, embroidered tissues, and other beauty accessories. The amber of the care rooms, a tribute to the traditional olfactory family of high French perfumery.
