Fragrance and Composition

Eau de Basilic Pourpre is a woody aromatic fragrance launched in 2022. It was created by perfumer Christine Nagel, inspired by a memory of a stall featuring various basil varieties at the French Courson plant fair.

• Top note: bergamot
• Heart: basil and geranium
• Base: spices and patchouli
• Type: eau de cologne (Eau de Cologne)
