Elie Saab’s haute couture perfume Essence N° 2 Gardenia is a true olfactory trompe l’oeil, a blooming sculpture crafted from the duality between creamy wood tones and tendar floral notes, with exquisite green and white accents. Egyptian Sambac Jasmine brings a radiant floral infusion to a creamy heart of Iris Butter absolute. The sophisticated and elegant trail is revealed in a caress of rare and precious Indian Sandalwood.
