In a nutshell

Antonia No. 02 by Puredistance is an austere green floral with a silky, rich core. Go easy on the trigger.

Jean Patou Normandie opens with dry neroli and velvety ylang-ylang, shifting into a warm floral heart of carnation and resinous styrax. The base grounds the composition in earthy oakmoss and musk, offering a retro, classic profile for vintage enthusiasts seeking a sophisticated cold-weather wear.
