    Real talk

    The aldehydic top is sharp, almost medicinal at first, but give it two minutes and the peach emerges alongside a green artemisia note that feels distinctly 1970s.Empreinte
    Not every fragrance needs to fill the room. Arpège EDP rewards those who understand that restraint is its own power. The aldehydic-floral-chypre structure isn't for everyone.Arpège
