Rêverie Au Jardin by Andy Tauer {New Perfume}

Perfumer Andy Tauer is launching a new fragrance called Rêverie Au Jardin (Day-Dreaming In The Garden). It will be his fifth commercialized perfume. He is also the author of a series of four other beautiful, original perfumes named L'Air Du Désert Marocain (The Air of the Moroccan Desert), Le Maroc Pour Elle (Morocco for Her), Lonestar Memories, and Orris (a limited edition that has sold out I believe). You can read an interview we did with the author here.

The new perfume was inspired by the different facets of lavender. The creation process was discussed in part on his own blog, Perfumery...  

"The fragrance:
I love lavender, in all its facets ranging from herbaceous, spicy green notes to sweet, clean flowers and woody, vibrant chords. I wanted to create a fragrance that captures this complexity and transform it into a perfume. A perfume that melts into the skin, and makes me dream of green lands and twinkling stars.

The notes:
The head notes are very green and fresh- lavender (high altitude mountain lavender from France, galbanum and fir balm with bergamot and rose absolute from Bulgaria softening the herbaceous lavender. They lead over to a musky, fresh heart note (frankincense from India and ambrette seeds) with a woody and flowery orris line. The body note is the most complex part of the scent, being a soft, and airy wood accord (vetiver, tonka beans, oakmoss). Hints of vanilla and ambergris, sandalwood and cedar wood play into a balsamic tone that seems to last for ever."
