The Signature of Chypre du Nord
An opening of bergamot and orange sets the tone. At the heart, peach and nutmeg unfold, before oakmoss, benzoin, musk, cedar, birch tar and Tonka bean give the scent a lasting, warm finish.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
Chypre du Nord moves us with its balance between bergamot and oakmoss: refined, without ever becoming loud. On the skin the scent opens with bergamot and orange, bright and inviting during the first half hour. Then peach and nutmeg take over and the composition reveals its true character. After three to four hours it settles into oakmoss and benzoin, a soft, personal finish that lingers well into the day on skin and clothing. We like to wear it best all year round, during the day and at the office. A scent for lovers of classic chypres with oakmoss.
