First Edition Or by Van Cleef & Arpels reimagines the house's classic floral heritage with a softer, modern polish. The fragrance opens with a sunny burst of crisp bergamot layered over ripe peach and sweet raspberry juice. Within twenty minutes, the bright fruitiness settles into a velvety bouquet of dewy lily-of-the-valley, green-tinged rose, and sunny jasmine blossoms. It carries the comforting, pristine aroma of expensive French milled soap lathered in warm water. As it dries down over the day, soft white musk, dry woodsy notes, and creamy vanilla create a gentle powdery cushion that sits close to the skin. It feels bright, poised, and naturally put-together without ever choking out a room. You get a clean floral sweetness that works effortlessly from spring mornings to breezy autumn afternoons.

Tola Masha opens with a sharp, eye-watering splash of lime paired with a sweet burst of plum and strawberry. The initial brightness quickly shifts as birch and black pepper add a dry, smoky contrast to the sweet fruit.
