The Story
Poivre Piquant is a bold, peppery fragrance that captures the heat and spark of black pepper. It opens with a sharp, almost biting pepper note, softened by a touch of pink pepper and coriander. The heart reveals a floral warmth from carnation and rose, while the base settles into a smooth blend of sandalwood and musk. It's a unique, spicy scent that feels both classic and modern.
