The Story
Classique Summer 1997 is a limited edition flanker that captures the spirit of a Mediterranean summer. It opens with a burst of zesty lemon and sweet mandarin, leading into a floral heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang. The base is a warm blend of vanilla and sandalwood, making it both refreshing and comforting. This is a nostalgic, sun-drenched scent that feels like a vacation in a bottle.
