There is no recorded pyramid on this page, because we only print notes we can trace. With 2, 5 or 10 ml in a glass spray vial you can find out how it behaves on your skin, at your own pace. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAn honest gap\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe notes of Traversèe are not in our files. That is not a judgement about the perfume, only about what we can state with certainty. Pay attention to what is still there by the evening, since that is the part you live with longest. Clothes hold a scent differently from skin, which makes a scarf or sleeve a useful second test.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBefore it can be filled\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe status of Traversèe is on request, so the sizes are not open yet. Tell us through the form on this page that you want it, without any obligation. Wear it on more than one day before you make up your mind. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you receive\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe fill Traversèe from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and label it ourselves. The sizes are 2, 5 or 10 ml. Glass does not react with perfume, so what you smell is the perfume itself. Because it is a spray, the perfume spreads on skin the same way it would from the bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to test it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur data does not say whether L'Arc Traversèe is meant for warm or cold days, so test it in both if you can. Spray it on the inside of your wrist or elbow and do not rub. Try it once at home and once outdoors, since air and temperature change the impression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTraversèe comes without an audience tag in our data. Anyone who reacts strongly to certain notes is wise to test on skin first. It suits people who like to put a few scents side by side over a week. If you are choosing a gift, testing it yourself first tells you what you are giving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy try L'Arc Traversèe as a sample first\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrying before owning saves shelf space and regret.
