The Vallée de Farney nature preserve, where Marie’s Grandfather discovered many new plant specimens, was the inspiration for this fragrance. The fragrance opens with a bright, zesty citrus burst, that combines the tang of grapefruit and orange with the subtle kick of black pepper. Imagine taking a bite out of a freshly picked fruit, while trekking through the undergrowth - totally invigorating. As the scent warms and the candle burns, the woody notes of Cedarwood and Patchouli take center stage. These rich, earthy aromas ground the fragrance in the natural world, evoking the scent of trees and soil and the wild, untamed beauty of the forest. Let Vallée de Farney transport you to the heart of Mauritius Island, where Louis Marie's passion for botanical exploration was ignited and where the beauty of nature unfolds in all its glory.
