With a
(presumably) attenuated citrus accord betraying its age, this vintage sample of
Moment Suprême extrait effectively cuts straight to the perfume’s intensely soapy heart of
lavender and rose. For a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it period, Patou’s familiar ambery-peach note is clearly detectable in the top, though the fruit quickly sinks
into a coumarinic herbal fond (constituted in part by Givaudan’s old Melittis base)
that’s shaded with plenty of clovey eugenol.
