Eau Vive (1966)
by Carven

The vintage fragrance is way better than the version made after 1995. The original is a crisp citrus fragrance with notes of lemon, geranium, sandalwood and patchouli.I have read that as a marketing ploy, it was allowed to be sampled on all Air France flights.And that it was the first edt not derived from a parfum.If you want it I have it.

Nice, fresh fragrance. Citrus top note, with juniper and cilantro. Dry down is more mellow and powdery. Sadly, hard to find.
