L’Aventure Blanche

L'Aventure Blanche is a clean floral and one of the better-made things Al Haramain does outside the Amber Oud line.

Lemon, bergamot, lavender and rose open it crisp and slightly soapy. The heart is black currant with jasmine, orris and lily-of-the-valley — powdery, restrained, more European in feel than the house's oud work — and sandalwood with amber closes it quietly. Office-appropriate, which in this catalogue is worth saying.

Eau de parfum, 3.3 oz.
