L'Eau d'Hiver by Frédéric Malle is a delicate Floral Woody Musk fragrance crafted for both women and men, launched in 2003. This ethereal scent was created by the renowned perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena, known for his minimalist and poetic approach to fragrance.
L'Eau d'Hiver embodies the softness of a winter’s day, blending warmth with a light, airy freshness. The fragrance opens with tender floral notes, introducing a hint of heliotrope and iris that evokes a sense of calm and tranquility. Subtle touches of honey and white musk create a comforting sweetness, while gentle woody undertones add depth without overpowering the composition. The result is a scent that feels both warm and cool, enveloping the wearer in a soft, cocoon-like embrace. Ideal for those who appreciate understated elegance, L'Eau d'Hiver is a beautifully balanced fragrance that soothes and captivates.
