Apricot Nectar

Inspiration
Apricot Nectar belongs to the Garden Collection, the series in which Amouroud brings colour into the bottle. The house describes the feeling of a sunbeam on your face, pure contentment. The amber-tinted bottle already tells you what to expect: fruit so ripe it begins to smell of honey.

The Signature of Apricot Nectar
Osmanthus is the key. The Chinese blossom naturally smells of apricot with a suede-like undertone, and Amouroud amplifies that with real apricot nectar, bergamot tea and a pinch of black and pink pepper. Beneath run rose absolute, jasmine and olibanum, and in the base golden patchouli, blond cedar and woody orris.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
We find Apricot Nectar one of the sunniest scents in our range. The first spray is juicy and tingles with pepper, then it turns to velvet: apricot skin, suede and a warm rose. Towards late afternoon an amber glow of patchouli and incense remains. Wear it on late summer days, at an outdoor lunch or whenever November leaves you missing the sun. A gift for women who want to wear fruit in a grown-up way, though we know plenty of men who quietly borrow it.
