L'Artisan Parfumeur — Traversee du Bosphores

A legendary creation inspired by a journey to Istanbul, this fragrance is now a rare find after its discontinuation. It presents a masterful olfactory landscape that balances sweet gourmand notes with soft, atmospheric textures. The scent opens with a crisp apple and pomegranate accord before settling into a heart of powdery iris and loukoum, evoking the sugary air of a Turkish bazaar. A supple, suede-like leather base grounds the composition, creating a sophisticated and unique contrast that remains highly prized by collectors.
