Quai Saint-Bernard, near the Jardin des Plantes the first couples arrive at the Tino-Rossi garden. As the night falls, the number of dancers increases and the bleachers fill up. Under the silver moon and the lights of the tourist barges that criss-cross the quay a few metres away, the bodies mingle to the rhythm of the music.
It is then that two glances cross paths. A discreet invitation brings them to the centre of the track. As if they were carried away, they dance in the heat of the night. From this hand-to-hand seduction punctuated by knowing smiles, they end up slipping away to give free flow to more carnal desires. In the early morning, the sheets give off a scent of sleepless nights, mischievous and lascivious embraces.
This classical Eau de Parfum opens with top notes of fig, black tea and cardamom essence.
Heart notes of iris and bourbon follow, before drying down with base notes of sandalwood and tonka bean absolute.

Perfect scent for the cold weather :)
Can I just say how impressed I am after receiving my order from Mr. Postman today? Libertine Parfumerie has gone above and beyond. My order arrived nicely packaged, well-presented, personalised handwritten notes and accommodated my request for the samples I requested… I am impressed with the customer service, thank you.
Moving on… BDK Gris Charnel is a blind buy… I was on a lookout for a new fragrance, MFK BR 540 is my signature scent since 2016 and as it has become mainstream fragrance and wanting something niche and new, I stumbled upon BDK Gris Charnel while searching online… relying on reading the notes and a review from Jus de Rose convinced me of getting Gris Charnel. And, I am in love with this fragrance… so fitting for the cold season - it is sweet, warm, and classy. To me, it’s like a medley of Diptyque Philosykos and Jo Malone Myrrh and Tonka but better. Definitely, my everyday scent for this cool weather.

Excited
Gris charnel is lovely, definitely a autumn/winter perfume. I feel it is a little more fitted to a man though.

Afternoon chai with friends at the fig tree cafe
Tea, Fig, Spices
It’s warm but refreshing with the fig.
A great scent for all year round at the following times
Spring - day
Summer - night
Winter \ Autumn - day
I think everyone would enjoy this fragrance. Its very genial & great to grab a coffee with girlfriends or a movie. It’s not sexy enough for me to wear on a date night. A good all rounder and daily signature scent.

It’s like a warm hug on a winters night.
I blind bought this perfume and it is holy! The cardamom notes peak through so perfectly, reminds me of chai, but a sexy chai. Potentially one of my favourite perfumes alongside pas ce soir. What a hidden gem BDK is.
