A sophisticated and sensual trail in base notes is composed of amber and musk, which are combined harmoniously. The fragrance was created by Nathalie Feistauer.Flacon of the new fragrance Aqua Oriens has taken over the form of the original Oriens and reminds us of blue lagoon from Tahiti, hidden and pure, pristine.

Outer carton is white, with illustration of a gem on the front side of packaging. Aqua Oriens will be available as 50ml EDT.
