Eva is the daughter of an Englishman who left his country for a forest of orange groves. Under the scorching Sicilian sun, the young English rose runs barefoot on the hot, fertile ground. She is inebriated by the smooth aroma of bitter orange and she charms those who pass her with her fresh and lively nature. Eva will never leave this radiant and restless countryside. She will become an artist, and showcase this nature in the gardens and parks of the grand Baroque villas of Noto.

HOW IT WEARS
Eva opens with a powerful citrus bang, there is the perfect blend of sweet and sour in the citrus notes. Then gradually the Orange Blossom comes into play and creates the creaminess that we love in Orange Blossom, and that balances perfectly with the sharpness of Citrus. A soft, mellow and elegant base creates a lovely warmth on the skin that also helps the fragrance last for 6 – 8 hours easily.
LORE LOVES
We love the romance of Sicily – the bright, hot sun, the citrus notes wafting in the air and of course, the flowers in full bloom. Ahh to be in Italy, enjoying the Sicilian landscapes right now. Well, this fragrance can take you there in such an elegant and romantic way. Utterly feminine, the Orange Blossom in Eva is just intoxicating when worn.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Born in 1774, Pierre-Francois Lubin lived in a period thought to be the most eventful in France’s history. He began his career as a perfume apprentice at the age of 10 to the famous Jean-Louis Fargeon in 1784. During this time under Fargeon’s tutelage, Lubin came to be entrusted with the beauty recipes of the French Royal Court. Fargeon came from a dynasty of expert perfumers and was Marie Antoinette’s official fragrance supplier. Renowned as the ‘holder of the secrets of beauty of the old court of France’ and thanks to his illustrious patronage, Lubin became the favourite perfumer of many European Courts. In 1821, he became the appointed official supplier of the King of England George IV. Then, in 1823 perfumer to the great Tsar of Russia Alexander I.

My goodness, EVA, what words come to mind? First I feel a tsunami of sunshine. This fragrance makes me smile. I loved it at first spray. For me this is a beautiful, fresh fragrance that barely ‘separates’ the notes as it dries down. So perfectly blended they just ‘flow’. Definitely be wearing this through summer. Zesty, citrusy, an unusual combination of crisp AND creamy. Full marks for length of performance too. “EVA” makes me feel young every time I get a waft of it floating around me. There’s really something uplifting and clean about this one. Love it❤️
