The delicate fragrance of Eau de la Couronne carries its own unique story. It was dedicated in 1824 by Jean Rancé to the middle and most beloved sister of the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, Marie-Paulette, or Pauline. It was recreated by the master perfumers of Rance 1795 in the 21st century. These floral and oriental blends evoke a romantic atmosphere of luxurious European estates, royal blooming gardens, refined manners, elegant balls, and lavish garments made from expensive materials.
At the outset, the fragrance's melody intertwines the semitones of juicy melon with the citrus freshness of blood orange, watery splashes of violet with grassy motifs, and the rich resonance of the saturated overtones of blackcurrant. The heart of the perfume pyramid plays with refined nuances of sensual white freesia combined with creamy specks of gardenia, honeyed tones of jasmine, and enticing notes of Granny Smith apple. The scent's trail sparkles with an interweaving of aristocratic amber with a salty glint, shades of candy-like iris, enriched with the powdery touch of musk and the woody chords of the tangy accents of mahogany.
