How it wears, from first spray to dry-down.
A fragrance changes on your skin over the day. This is what you'll notice, and roughly when.
- First spray Plum and peachStraight away there's plum and soft peach, round and velvety, like fruit ripening in a bowl on the windowsill.
- As it settles Violet and peonyAfter a while violet and peony appear, powdery and slightly old-world, like pressed flowers tucked between the pages of a book.
- The dry-down Leather and vanillaSoft leather and vanilla come through last, warm and faintly dusty, like the back room of a secondhand bookshop.

Does it smell exactly like Bibliothèque?
It's our interpretation, not a copy. violet and peony at the heart, leather and vanilla underneath.
How many sprays should I use?
Two or three is plenty. It's extrait, so start with less than you would with an eau de parfum: one on each side of the neck, or one on your chest under your shirt.
