The perfume of mystery. Her name was Mitsouko. It means 'mystery', a mystery of tenderness & softness. A masterpiece of balance, this mysterious perfume is made from spices & wood with subtly fruity accents. Its tonality is warm & sensual, it makes its presence known softly & embarks on a long story... One look at the Mitsouko bottle & more than ever one is struck by the modernity of its shape & the acuity of its lines. Each part that makes it up is cut in such a way as to possess its own beauty. Initially designed for L' Heure Bleue by Georges Chevalier & Baccarat, this beautifully pure bottle echoes the scrolls that are typical of Art Nouveau. The bottle's graceful arabesques faithfully illustrate the orient list tone of this beautiful story. Its avant-garde stopper, in the form of a hollowed heart, evokes romanticism & represented a real technical feat at the time. Fragrance Description. Fruity chypre Mysterious, Balanced, Velvety. A masterpiece of balance & originality, Mitsouko marries a fruity note of peach with jasmine flowers & May rose. The mysterious dry-down of the fragrance blends spicy notes with those of underbrush & vetiver.
