by Elie Saab
Elie Saab Le Parfum Eau de Toilette is a refined, airy white floral with a bright citrus opening that feels like a sun-drenched garden in bloom. The core accord centers on orange blossom and gardenia, blended with a soft honey note that adds warmth without cloying sweetness. This composition feels delicate and elegant, evoking an effervescent, sunlit freshness—like a moment of pure spring after rain. The vetiver base provides subtle dryness, grounding the fragrance without introducing any earthiness. On many skin types, it unfolds gently and lingers in a subtle, pleasant way, with moderate sillage that is noticeable at arm's length but fades quickly. While some users find it underwhelming or short-lived, others cite its timeless beauty and wearable sophistication, ideal for daytime or warm-weather wear. It's particularly prized by those who appreciate a feminine, iris-like elegance without the harshness of synthetic powders or the heaviness of darker florals.
