Lebanon is one of the most attractive destinations for tourism, which has gained popularity in the last decade. The perfumers of the Japanese fashion house Comme des Garcons tried to recreate the luxurious sensations of staying in the Lebanese city of Batroun in an olfactory composition. Also, one of the inspirations for perfumers was the traditional soap with laurel aromas, which has been made in the Syrian city of Aleppo for many centuries. It was thanks to the combination of two concepts that the amazing Laurel fragrance was born, which is part of the magnificent Monocle perfume collection.
From the first seconds, the fragrance captivates with green, herbal notes of noble laurel leaves. Gradually, the composition opens up with an exquisite mix of smoky incense and black pepper accords. The composition is completed by a combination of darker and richer accords of laurel framed by notes of graceful marigolds, sweet cedar, sophisticated amber and sensual patchouli. Treat yourself to a journey into the mesmerizing, luxurious world of the Middle East with the stunning Laurel fragrance.
