Description
Neroli Supercritique by Les Eaux Primordiales offers a vibrant and gourmand take on orange blossom, evoking the joyful atmosphere of Marrakech's Jardin Majorelle. It opens with a sparkling blend of citrus and aldehydes, leading into a heart where neroli, jasmine, and orange blossom create a beautifully balanced floral sweetness. The fragrance then settles into a comforting base of white musks, guaiac wood, and vanilla, giving it a deliciously sweet, almost pastry-like oriental finish. This scent manages to be both fresh and deep, with a unique toasted woody nuance that sets it apart. Perfumer: Arnaud Poulain

VanillaAbout LES EAUX PRIMORDIALES
Les Eaux Primordiales is a French niche fragrance house founded in 2015 by artist-engineer Arnaud Poulain in Hauts-de-France, blending mechanical precision, artisanal craftsmanship, and perfumery innovation in collaboration with perfumer Amélie Bourgeois. Inspired by Jules Verne's 'primordial waters' symbolizing life's origins, the brand produces fragrances in-house at a historic castle estate, emphasizing authenticity, texture, and emotion through vertically integrated processes from maceration to hand-finished bottling. Its signature style merges classic perfumery codes with cutting-edge technology, creating individual, elemental scents like clean linen and aldehydic musks in the Superclassique collection that evoke raw sincerity and transcendence.
