fontaine royale n°2
Flowers and sweetness appear against a background of polished wood in Fontaine Royale n°2. This eau de parfum takes an elegant fantasy as its theme, offering rose, powdery orris, wood, and resin as different ways into that scene.

Flowers and sweetness appear against a background of polished wood in Fontaine Royale n°2. This eau de parfum takes an elegant fantasy as its theme, offering rose, powdery orris, wood, and resin as different ways into that scene.
Bergamot opens the composition, followed by jasmine, orris, rose, and geranium. Orris adds a softer, cosmetic-powder texture to the bouquet, while geranium brings greener associations. Together they invite attention to the differences among flowers as well as their sweetness.
Sandalwood, cedarwood, musk, ambergris, styrax, cistus, and vanilla form the base. Drier and creamier woods meet sweet resin and musk, introducing a calmer contrast to the floral heart.
The fullness of a bouquet meets the softness of powder and wood. Choosing it might feel like choosing flowers for a day of dressing up, or for a morning when taking a little more time over getting ready is part of the pleasure.
