Paloma Picasso Eau de Parfum 30ml Spray

Paloma Picasso Eau de Parfum 30ml Spray is the iconic signature fragrance of the Parisian designer Paloma Picasso, originally launched in 1984 and known under the official title Mon Parfum. A confidently bold floral chypre, it opens with a sparkling accord of bergamot, coriander and mandarin, develops a generous heart of rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang and angelica, and dries down on a deep, classic chypre base of oakmoss, patchouli, sandalwood, civet and amber. The 30ml flacon is the discreet, handbag-friendly format of the line.

About Paloma Picasso

Paloma Picasso, daughter of Pablo Picasso and Françoise Gilot, made her name as a jewellery designer for Tiffany & Co. before launching her eponymous fashion and fragrance line in 1984. Her debut perfume, Mon Parfum, has become an enduring example of the 1980s power chypre, prized for its confident character and uncompromising elegance.

Who it's for

Paloma Picasso suits women who appreciate classical floral chypres in the 1980s tradition and want a confident, characterful signature scent. It is well placed for evening wear, special occasions and the autumn and winter wardrobe, and serves as an alternative for fans of vintage-style chypres such as Yves Saint Laurent Yvresse or Coriandre.

How to wear

Apply two sprays to the inner wrists and the décolletage. Eau de parfum strength gives six to eight hours of wear with confident sillage in the opening; the chypre drydown develops slowly and lingers detectably on clothing.
