Bright citrus
Citrus fruits ripened in the Mediterranean sun.
Citrus Maxima
This box set contains a limestone nestled in its velvet pouch, a bottle of Citrus Maxima fragrance, and a botanical exploration notebook.
At the heart of this ritual lies the fossil stone Lutecia Calcarea. A sedimentary rock rich in marine fossils, Lutetian limestone from the Paris Basin was formed around 45 million years ago. Used since Antiquity, it now reveals a rare olfactory potential thanks to its exceptional porosity, allowing a few drops of fragrance to be applied for a natural diffusion without any combustion.
Composed around mandora, blood orange, and orange blossom, Citrus Maxima offers an explosion of luminous citrus fruits and sunny flowers. Inspired by the lush gardens of Cap Martin and the neighboring Ligurian coast, this creation evokes the freshness of an orange tree in bloom, foliage bursting with light, and the serenity of summers by the Mediterranean.
