This is a remarkable perfume with a subtle, elegant fragrance and classic features, created by Annick Goutal and Francis Camail. The creators were inspired by the novel "Memoirs of Hadrian" by Marguerite Yourcenar, crafting a scent to relive the exciting moments of this captivating book.
Eau D`Hadrien is imbued with the light breeze of a refreshing wind and the warmth of the Mediterranean sun, yet it uniquely combines two opposing elements—coolness and warmth.
The perfume composition includes a gentle haze of fragrant grass, transparency, and a delicate bitterness. Citrus notes unfold with joy and freshness, gradually warmed by an enchanting woody aura. The ripe fruits of juicy grapefruit and Sicilian lemon, warmed by the sun, blend with the subtle tones of cypress and citron, adding lightness and creating harmony. Each note of the fragrance evokes the thrilling moments of life, as if in a delightful romantic novel.

The fragrance itself is very pleasant, HOWEVER, it is not long-lasting at all.
The scent is different from what I'm used to. I bought it without testing it, just in case. The first impression is vibrant citrus notes - lemon, mandarin, and orange, followed by wood, possibly cypress, also very vibrant middle notes. I quickly got used to it, the scent is vibrant but calm, fresh. The packaging is unique - native details. And it has a large volume - not convenient for traveling.
The scent is very fresh and light, with distinct notes of citrus (lemon, grapefruit). There is also a hint of pine (cypress) and a delicate sweetness of mandarin. The fragrance is long-lasting and leaves a beautiful trail, but only in the perfume form. I really liked it!
