Description

Althaïr by Parfums de Marly is a warm, spiced vanilla fragrance, surrounded by orange blossom, praline and smooth woods.

To picture its scent, imagine Bourbon vanilla melted into praline, brightened by mandarin and orange blossom. Cinnamon and cardamom add a warm, aromatic spice, while elemi brings a subtle fresh and resinous touch.

Guaiac wood adds depth and keeps the vanilla from feeling flat or overly sugary. It smells of creamy vanilla, praline, orange blossom and warm spices: sweet, elegant and comforting, with a beautifully polished woody base.
