Tres Chic

The composition moves from bergamot and lemon into chypre accord, jasmine, and opoponax. The citrus notes establish a fresh opening, while jasmine adds floral character and opoponax brings warmth to the heart. Leather and sandalwood shape the base with dry, woody notes, and styrax adds a smoky element underneath. Together, the ingredients create a clear progression from bright citrus to floral, warm, woody, and smoky notes.

The evolution

It begins with bergamot and lemon, creating a clean and brisk first impression. As the heart develops, chypre accord brings an earthy character, jasmine adds a floral dimension, and opoponax contributes warmth. The composition then turns toward leather, sandalwood, and styrax. Leather supplies a close, suede-like texture, sandalwood smooths the woody base, and styrax leaves a darker smoky note underneath. The listed notes move from a citrus opening through floral and earthy elements into a warm, woody foundation with a smoky finish.
