Parfums De Marly Palatine EDP 75ml

Fragrance story

Inspired by the independent spirit of Elizabeth-Charlotte, Princess Palatine, this scent reimagines violet with contemporary brightness. It begins with a succulent trio of pear, mandarin and Calabrian bergamot. Seconds later, a powder-sheer violet petal accord and clean lavandin unfurl, forming a weightless floral haze. As Palatine settles, a velvety base of musk, creamy sandalwood, patchouli and a touch of Madagascan vanilla glows on the skin—fresh, softly sweet and quietly assured.
