Composed of a sunny, creamy, and narcotic white floral bouquet, Avant et Après by Isabey is lulled by a sea wind in a refreshing signature. The fragrance opens with Freesia lending a touch of floral grace and gentle sweetness to the composition, and Frangipani Flower, bringing sunshine and warmth. The heart unfolds with Jasmin Sambac, with its floral, voluptuous, sweet, and slightly animalistic scent. In the dry-down, Vanilla, Benzoin, and Musk emphasize the sweetness and intensity of the Tiare Flower.
For her first collaboration with Isabey, perfumer Marie Schnirer created a solar contemporary scent, a bouquet of feminine and sensual white flowers sublimated with salty notes: “Isabey inspires elegance, character, and femininity. It was therefore interesting for me to compose a large bouquet of white flowers. What could be more feminine and sensual?”
