Rancé 1795 - Collection Impériale - Hortense
Hortense, the daughter of Joséphine and mother of Napoleon III, was beautiful, seductive, and intelligent. With her blue eyes and golden hair, she perfumed herself with the flowers of Holland, of which she was queen, and the spices from the countries she dreamed of. An audacious composition of spicy and mysterious notes, enriched with a warm and sensual base, creating a lively and irresistible aromatic adventure. Hortense is the expression of an exuberant personality.
The bouquet begins and seduces with spicy notes of cardamom, pepper, and bergamot, then leading to tasty accents of Ceylon cinnamon, Lebanese cedarwood, Bulgarian rose, and incense: precious notes that still evoke hints of overseas and trace the routes of an intriguing olfactory map. The warm base of woods, incense, and vanilla shines in the rich brilliance of spices. As the heir of the Rancé tradition, the Eau de Parfum adds a new note dedicated to a sophisticated and charming woman.
