Never ending Summer

$150.00

The Aperol accord in the opening of Never Ending Summer is the kind of decision that either works immediately or does not. It works here because bitter orange and pepper frame it correctly, giving the Italian aperitivo note enough bright-bitter context to read as coastal Amalfi rather than cocktail counter. Earl grey tea and cardamom in the heart are the aromatic mid-stage that Christophe Raynaud uses to take the opening from breezy to considered. Vetiver, patchouli, and peru balsam give the base a warmth that holds the summer accord in place past the point when the opening has faded.

Why We Carry This

The Aperol accord is specific enough to place Never Ending Summer in its own category within the Replica line. Raynaud's bitter-orange heart and the vetiver-patchouli base give it a sophistication that keeps the seasonal premise from being merely decorative.
