Beach Walk opens with bright, sunny bergamot, followed by creamy ylang-ylang, heliotrope, and a subtle touch of coconut. The combination immediately brings to mind warm sand, warm skin, and the comforting scent of luxurious sunscreen on a summer day. The base of soft musk and gentle woods adds a clean, airy quality that feels effortless and relaxed. On my skin, longevity is around three hours with moderate projection. It’s a pleasant summer fragrance that captures the carefree feeling of a day spent by the pool or strolling along a sunlit promenade. While it isn’t particularly ground breaking, it is undeniably enjoyable and easy to wear. To be truly faithful to its name, however, it could use a touch more saltiness, the crisp sea breeze and mineral notes that would complete the beachside illusion.

A beautiful modern gourmand with a really elegant twist. It opens with a deep velvety chocolate note touched by the tartness of peach and bergamot. The chocolate accord only lingers for a moment before a ripe, juicy plum begins to emerge, followed by hints of jasmine and creamy sandalwood.The plum is sweet and slightly jammy, yet never sticky or overly cloying. After some time, this indulgent plum is joined by a caramel note which, on my skin, smells more like Cornish vanilla clotted cream fudge. Everything is beautifully rounded out by warm amber which, combined with the plum, gives this fragrance a truly luxurious and high quality feel. Longevity on my skin is around six hours, while the projection stays relatively close to the skin, making this the perfect fragrance for the colder seasons.
