With glistening orange blossom and cool lavender charming the senses before the creaminess of vanilla and tonka bean take hold, this full-bodied composition is bound to make her a happy lady once the big day arrives! Taking things up a notch further, Libre Intense has the same Libre floral signature, but with the addition of orchid accord that makes for the perfect accompaniment for the Christmas festivities.
