{"product_id":"french-avenue-zenith-santal-sample","title":"French Avenue Zenith Santal Sample","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrench Avenue Zenith Santal is an Eau de Parfum that opens with cardamom, violet leaf and papyrus, centres on sandalwood, iris and leather, and ends on cedarwood, amber and musk. Creamy woods and powdery iris can feel luxurious or too quiet, depending on the skin, so a 10 ml decant is the sensible first step before 100 ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFragrance notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Cardamom, Violet Leaf, Papyrus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHeart:\u003c\/b\u003e Sandalwood, Iris, Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBase:\u003c\/b\u003e Cedarwood, Amber, Musk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCardamom and papyrus\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCardamom, violet leaf and papyrus open the perfume softly.
