ALTHAÏR · Eau de Parfum

ALTHAÏR by Parfums de Marly (75 and 125 ml) reinvents Bourbon vanilla for men: an elixir both warm and fresh, gourmand and airy, which has become one of the French maison's recent triumphs.

Vanilla crowned

Bergamot and mandarin open the composition with an unexpected citrus burst, sharpened by resinous elemi. The heart pairs sunlit orange blossom with cinnamon and cardamom, noble spices inherited from the court of Louis XV. In the base, Bourbon vanilla reigns supreme, escorted by smoky guaiac wood and a refined praline — a suave, almost addictive trail.

Our experts' tip

Althaïr excels in cool weather and in the evening, though its spiced freshness makes it wearable all year round: two sprays are enough. Keep the bottle away from light and heat.
