The story
The idea
Here Elie Saab leaves the salon for the street. Girl of Now pictures a woman moving from a work meeting to a terrace, then on to an improvised dinner. The house keeps its luminous orange blossom but serves it with a touch of sweetness.
The accord
The opening pairs pistachio, round and lightly toasted, with pear, fresh and sugary. In the heart, bitter almond and orange blossom form an accord both white and gourmand, like a pastry set on petals. The base blends tonka bean, creamy almond milk and a patchouli that keeps the sweetness in check.
On the skin
Pistachio stands out first, then pear steps back behind the almond. Over the hours the scent moves closer and turns creamier. Longevity is average and the sillage moderate: a friendly presence, never heavy.
When to wear it
Every day, for the office, university or an afternoon in town. In the evening it suits a relaxed dinner. It likes spring and autumn, and brings light warmth to cold days.
