His creations are going to be more widely distributed in the By Terry boutiques........

Histoire d'Un Rêve is inspired by the iconic image of a natural, impulsive, and sensual flapper girl. Top notes are fresh:  mandarin, bergamot. Heart notes are floral and spicy: cinnamon, rose, jasmine, iris, ylang ylang. Base notes are ambery and woody: cedar, sandalwood, patchouli, and vanilla.

Histoire Charnelle was made after a carnal woman who evokes envy. She is lucid and ambitious. Top notes are fruity and fresh: pear, coco, mandarin, bergamot. Heart notes are woody and aromatic: sandalwood, cedar, patchouli, cinnamon, nutmeg. Base notes are ambery: Tonka Bean and vanilla.

Délicieuse Histoire was inspired by the archetype of the woman-child. Top notes are fresh and fruity: pear and melon. Heart notes are sweet: blackberry and coconut. Base notes are subtle and ambery: Tonka bean, heliotrope, hazelnut, and praline.
