The Signature of Coup de Foudre
An opening of bergamot, lemon, sweet orange, white grapefruit, green tea and black pepper sets the tone. At the heart, jasmine, rose de mai, lily-of-the-valley, champaca, ylang-ylang and tuberose unfold, before cinnamon, turmeric, Tonka bean, vanilla, benzoin, labdanum, Tolu balsam, pine, guaiac wood, sandalwood with pink lotus infusion and oud from trat give the scent a lasting, warm finish.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
For us, Coup de Foudre captures exactly what makes niche perfumery special: a sensual, seductive scent with a clear signature. On the skin the scent opens with bergamot and lemon, bright and inviting during the first half hour. Then jasmine and rose de mai take over and the composition reveals its true character. After three to four hours it settles into cinnamon and turmeric, a soft, personal finish that lingers well into the day on skin and clothing. We like to wear it best on autumn and winter evenings, for a special occasion. A scent for lovers of rich florals with oud.
