07 SOLSEKIA Eau de Parfum

A secluded garden on the Mayan Riviera gives Solsekia its atmosphere: orange blossom in the sea breeze, green plants and sun-warmed air. Rather than describing a tropical garden through heavy floral sweetness, Pierre Guillaume captures its fresher, more delicate side.

Citrus and Mexican orange blossom form a bright floral accord, accompanied by blue agave and the green, lightly spicy character of chilli leaves. Driftwood and vetiver lend a drier counterbalance. The contrast is between the softness of the flowers and the more saline, vegetal impressions around them, not between sharp freshness and a rich sweet base.

Solsekia therefore suggests a coastal garden rather than a bowl of ripe fruit or an opulent white-flower bouquet. Its freshness has gentle contours, with enough dry wood and green detail to keep the sunlit floral character from feeling sugary.

Fragrance notes: citrus, Mexican orange blossom, blue agave, pimento, driftwood and vetiver.

This fragrance is for you if: you like fresh floral fragrances with a green, lightly salty character and prefer delicate flowers to lush, sweet bouquets.

This fragrance may not be your best match if: you expect a tropical fragrance to be creamy, coconut-like or dominated by sweet exotic fruit; Solsekia takes its character from coastal greenery and flowers.

Choose this fragrance if: you are looking for orange blossom softened by a sea-breeze impression and balanced by driftwood and vetiver, rather than a conventional citrus cologne.

How to apply — general guidance: spray onto clean, dry skin, for example on the neck or the inside of the wrists. Allow to dry without rubbing. Avoid contact with the eyes and follow the instructions on the packaging.
