Séville à l’Aube is the passionate story of a romance during the Holy Week, in the most captivating city of Andalusia, Seville, under an orange tree wrapped in the arms of a Spanish boy. Told by Denyse Beaulieu to master perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, it awakened his senses and lead to the creation of this stunning soliflore. The orange tree is central to the story as well as the fragrance. It opens with spicy, green and zesty notes and gives way to the passion of the heart notes. Enhanced by a jasmine accord and beeswax, the orange flower absolute reveals its opulence and stunning sensuality. Finally, base notes unveil a certain darkness, imparted by lavender from Seville and frankincense, giving a spiritual intensity to the entire perfume. This scent is an amazing take on orange blossom, with contrasts that are unexpected, but render this scent beautiful and an exquisite pleasure to wear, even if you didn't have a hot Spanish boy in your past.
This fragrance will not be available for purchase in the United States until this Fall.
Full bottles can be purchased at Beauty Encounter.

I loved the opening notes of green in an orange blossom grove. The orange blossom was full-blown; the jasmine appeared with it a little later and made for a very sweet floral. The basenotes only appeared at the 6-hour mark and were very well-blended. I couldn't pick out the individual notes, just noticed that it smelled "grounded" finally and the sweetness was gone.

I get an initial burst of the lavender for about 30 seconds then it is just orange blossom and jasmine. It stays creamy and floral for the duration. I don't smell any incense. It just gradually fades away. It lasts longer than i thought it would which is a plus for me. It's sweet, but I don't think it's sugar syrup sweet. If you like orange blossom it's worth sampling.

Many of you will not agree with me on this one; I know that it has already developed quite a following, and if you are an orange blossom lover, this one may well be made for you. On my skin, however, all I got was sweet orange blossom; no development, no other discernible notes, just sweet overwhelming orange blossom...
