A simple reading can sometimes transform you and change everything. For Annick Goutal, it was Marguerite Yourcenar's Memoirs of Hadrian, A Summer in Italy. More than a memory, it is a landscape that takes shape under the Tuscan sun, on a terrace lined with cypresses; it is a cocktail of sparkling lemon and citrus, a fragrance of dazzling freshness, with an understated elegance and incredibly modern… it is the first fragrance of the House, the timeless Eau d'Hadrien. Head note: Sicilian lemon, citron, grapefruit, bergamot Heart note: Green mandarin from Italy, juniper berries Foundation note: Cypress, ylang ylang, musk.
