Infanta en flor — floral musky amber
The olfactive snapshot of the Spanish Golden Age and the Hapsburg Court.
June 1660, Isle of Pheasants, Basque region, on the French-Spanish border.
Maria Teresa, the Infanta of Spain, is offered to Louis XIV in exchange for peace between the two nations. Innocently perfumed with Orange flower water, her powdery complexion blushes as the gallant King lays his eyes on her for the first time. She opens her scented fan and steals a look back.
Notes include: Orange flower water, Spanish leather, cistus resin, immortelle flower.
