Byzantine (1995)
by Rochas

I love this sparkling, effervescent fragrance. White flowers with some orange blossom and spices make it sing, joyously.

I remember this one very well as my grandfather's second wife used to wear it. I didn't like her too much as a person, but the scent itself really appeals to me - it's really exotc. the sweetness, powderiness and floral note really blend well together. it's not as soft or nearly as sultry as Hypnotic Poison for example, but it's still highly luxrious. the bottle which is rich blue with gold wrting on it really sums it up well - a rich, soft oriental. Good stuff.
