Cyclamen is recognised by its swept-back petals, pink, mauve or white. Some wild species have a delicate scent, but the flower yields nothing to extraction: the perfumer recreates its impression from molecules, often with lily-of-the-valley notes. The result is a transparent flower, fresh and slightly watery.
What it brings
A transparent floral freshness, green and watery.
