Upcycled Mandarin by Liquides Imaginaires presents a vibrant and complex take on the mandarin note, aiming to capture its full spectrum through innovative extraction methods. It opens with a lively, green citrus burst, brightened by the crisp, cool spice of pink pepper and cardamom. As the fragrance evolves, a floral and aromatic heart emerges, subtly infused with hints of luscious fruit nectar. The composition settles into a warm, golden embrace where helichrysum takes center stage, enriched by the sweet, honeyed depth of almond, vanilla, and benzoin, all grounded by powdery woods and the delicate earthiness of immortelle. This scent offers a refined and lasting impression, perfect for those who appreciate a sophisticated citrus with depth and warmth. Perfumers: Carol Belli and Kosuke Minakata
