Birth of Venus
Eau de parfum
Botticelli's Venus as a fragrance: citrus and peach, a heart of flowers, a base of resinous woods.
Birth of Venus is inspired by Botticelli's masterpiece, the goddess rising from the sea foam. Bergamot, grapefruit, juicy peach, orange blossom and lavender open the fragrance like sunlight on the sea.
At heart, narcissus, jasmine sambac and rose mingle with raspberry and a hint of chocolate, before a base of amber, vetiver, sandalwood, cashmere wood and labdanum. A luminous, romantic fruity floral.

Birth of Venus in detail
Argos, an American house founded by Christian Petrovich, tells an ancient legend in each fragrance, often through a great painting. Birth of Venus takes its inspiration from Botticelli's Venus: citrus and peach at the start, a heart of flowers and a base of resinous woods.
The official pyramid opens on bergamot, peach, orange blossom, grapefruit and lavender. The heart brings together narcissus, jasmine sambac, rose, raspberry and a touch of chocolate. The base pairs amber, vetiver, sandalwood, cashmere wood and labdanum.
Birth of Venus is worn in spring and summer, by day or by night: a wedding, a summer evening, an outdoor party. Its resinous base makes it as pleasant in the evening as during the day.
