The Fragrance
21 is the perfect balance between pureness and sensuality, light and shadows, essentiality and richness. 21 ingredients of the most refined quality blend together in this multi-faceted, deeply intriguing fragrance. Comforting and caressing like soft cashmere, 21 intoxicates the senses with its mysterious aromas. The audacity of saffron is contrasted by the pureness of milk and the gentleness of orange blossom. In the heart, royal jelly alternates with musk, olibanum and black pepper, then revealing the intensity of the enveloping and ultra long-lasting dry-down of cashmeran, oud wood, labdanum and vanilla; refined and endless harmony.
