Product Description

This long-lasting, clean fragrance opens with soft, bright notes of bergamot and pear, gently unfolding into a floral heart of jasmine, rose, and violet. It's balanced by a base of vanilla, musk, and moss, giving it a warm, second-skin finish that wears for up to over 12 hours.

Fragrance Family: Warm & Spicy.
Scent Type: Warm & Sheer.
Key Notes: Bergamot, Jasmine, Musk.

About the Bottle: Inspired by modernist jewelry, the custom glass bottle is designed to feel like an objet d'art that sits comfortably in the palm of your hand—a nod to the tradition of fragrance as a timeless accessory.

About the Fragrance: Inspired by old-world techniques and vintage notes, this concentrated extrait melts into the skin for a pure scent that endures all day. Developed in Paris, it balances elements of old and new, as well as softness and depth. Its complex blend is both familiar and intriguing, offering a fresh perspective on modern fragrances.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Unusual happy scent This is an unusual and 'happy' perfume! People have commented when I have worn it. It definitely grows on you - it's kind of fresh, zingy but comforting all at the same time.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Avoid this perfume I don't understand why people making a fuss about this perfume 😕 complete waste of money . Ridiculously small to begin with and i don't smell anything. Don't BUY this perfume ❗️❗️

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful! This perfume is DIVINE! I just wish is came in a bigger size. The bottle is beautiful but the scent is so feminine with a multitude of layers to it and lasts beautifully on your skin.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Adore I absolutely adore this perfume! I generally like a floral fragrance, but this is more sophisticated! Fresh to begin with and then warms up! Long lasting on my skin, I’m quite addicted!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I Fell in Love! There have been so few fragrances I’ve truly loved in my life—Chanel No. 5, Trésor, Eternity Summer. So I didn’t expect to fall for Retrospect quite so deeply. But this fragrance doesn’t shout. It whispers. It lingers like a love letter on the skin—intimate, warm, and quietly radiant. It’s not just a scent—it’s a presence. And those who come close always notice: “You smell wonderful.”
