Description
Don't Cry For Me by ALTAIA paints a picture of warm summer evenings in Buenos Aires, capturing the intoxicating scent of jasmine blossoms on a gentle breeze. It opens with a delicate freshness, blending the bright notes of jasmine tea and freesia, which then gracefully evolve into a soft, powdery heart of cherry flower and heliotrope. The fragrance settles into a comforting base of vegetal amber, cashmere wood, ambrette, and labdanum, creating a serene and nostalgic aura. This scent is a poetic homage to cherished memories, evoking a sense of calm elegance and wistful romance. Perfumer: Daphné Bugey
