Eau du Soir, Sisley Paris’ best known fragrance, is inspired by Isabelle d’Ornano’s childhood memory of walking in the gardens of Alcazar in Seville, in southern Spain. She wanted the note at the heart of this elegant chypre to be Seringa, a simple, unusual white flower whose distinctive characteristic in these gardens is that it develops its essence at dusk.
SISLEY SOIR D’ORIENT
Soir d’Orient, Sisley’s new exclusive perfume, is a tribute to the warmth and mystery of Andalusia. This variation of Eau du Soir transports us to a palace in Seville that bore witness to the “convivencia” (coexistence), in which Muslims, Christians and Jews lived in relative peace for centuries and shared their knowledge, arts and cultures, making it a golden age.
Leave the gardens behind and enter the heart of the palace, a gem of Mudéjar architecture. The Gothic structure of the building, erected in the 13th century under the reign of Alfonso X, is adorned with rich decorations, transporting us to the time of the Moorish invasions and Spanish recapture when perfumes from the Orient blended with the scents of the West.
CHYPRE – FLORAL – ORIENTAL
A sparkling start
The perfume combines the brilliance of Italian Lemon, the green freshness of Iranian Galbanum and the voluptuous roundness of a Saffron accord.
A floral and spicy heart
Black Pepper from Madagascar lifts the fragrance, adding an almost insolent dimension to the mysterious and captivating scent of Turkish Rose absolute and Egyptian Geranium.
A woody and mysterious wake
The rich woodiness of the Sandalwood accord and the mysterious leather scents of Somalian Incense combine with the warm elegance of Indonesian Patchouli.
Price: 175 Swiss francs for 50 ml and 258 Swiss francs for 100 ml
