Parfums de Marly Kalan captures the true majesty of French formal gardens - both their imposing strength and their gentle beauty. They do it through the juxtaposition of two quintessentially French heart notes--lush, lovely orange blossom, and bright, masculine lavender, for a fragrance that evokes the breathtaking splendor of the gardens at Versailles itself.
This gorgeous unisex fragrance features top notes of spices, blood orange and black pepper; middle notes of lavender and orange blossom; and base notes of woody notes, moss, tonka bean, white sandalwood and amber. Kalan is an eau de parfum, edp.
Fragrantica - "Seasonally, I think this goes with everything. I've worn it in hot weather where it functions like an airy Baccarat, as well as European winters in which it feels like a blade in the air. It's kept the same identity with both, while morphing with body chemistry in accordance to the heat."
Fragrantica - "I'd sum this up as spicy barbershop. I absolutely love this-I crave it, really. I can't help but assume anyone who dislikes this is some sort of monster. If you don't like this your nose stinks, you will not be invited to my birthday party, and my dad will beat up your dad."
Fragrantica - "The first whiff was a very strong, masculine interpretation of roses to me. Overtly roses, and deeper concentration conjured images of a crowded cobblestone street on a sunny morning, lined with fresh flowers and the occasional mossy statue surrounded by tourists. It's very floral, but there's something deeply masculine about it. It's so aristocratic."
