Aqua Minimes
Lemon, mandarin and citron meet greener litsea and quieter woods, imagining the first light across a citrus garden still touched by dew.
Perfumer: Vincent Ricord
Aqua Minimes imagines the first light of a new day reaching a citrus garden while dew still rests on the plants. Introduced in 2018 and composed by Vincent Ricord, this eau de toilette moves from brighter fruit towards a quieter green and woody texture. It approaches the garden through a clean progression, balancing the liveliness of citrus with the more grounded impression of its base.
Lemon and mandarin meet citron, whose thicker peel-like character gives the opening another texture. Litsea adds a greener, lemon-like freshness before vetiver and cedarwood provide a drier woody finish. The changing relationship between the sparkling fruit and the calmer woods keeps the composition light without leaving citrus as its only impression.
Consider it for everyday outings or brighter spring and summer days. The tall 100mL presentation combines clear cylindrical glass with a black cap. Pale liquid remains visible around a white label carrying the botanical motif and Aqua Minimes name, above a thick transparent glass base.
