'Always and yet never the same' is the motto of this perfume. Contradiction is its name and it's theme, combining old scents and new into a seductive, complex mix. The heart note blends traditional floral scents of rose, peony, lily of the valley and jasmine with rarer flowers - eucalyptus, pear blossom and syringe. The base notes are warm with sandalwood and tonka beans against the bright, fresh notes of the head and heart. This is an anytime perfume, airy yet lasting.
