C.G - To want to be elsewhere, or to plunge into the memories of a childhood cradled by a fragile carefree spirit. A summer spent in the countryside where the smells of lemon blossoms, beeswax and cut hay intermingle. A light floral and green breeze, with the scent of almond and acacia, lifts a few strands of hair. Then rest in a corner, in the shade, under a lime tree. A ray of sunlight illuminates this summer memory, this sweet and easy time, releasing like a warm late afternoon the essences of tonka, vanilla and heliotrope. A luminous interlude by Olivia Giacobetti, where the beautiful days evoke a budding love, still imperceptible.
Let yourself be transported by the sweet memories of a teenage summer. The fresh vitality of angelica and lemon blossom highlights the crunchy aspect of almond. Lime blossom reveals a milky and powdery heart, which vanilla and tonka, in the background, come to round out. The story of an elusive love story, lighthearted and fragile.

perfume reviews
A powerful but natural acacia, very well balanced with lime. Simple but crisp green notes, and in the background, heliotrope reveals a powdery side and a rather feminine fragrance.

journalist opinion
Lost innocence has finally found its fragrant translation. This soft-spoken floral-green with generous inflections of lime, honey and cut hay is the most beautiful evocation of the sweet carefree spirit of adolescence and first love. Perfumer Olivia Giacobetti imagined this luminous interlude in memory of a golden age that we would like to see perpetuated, first under the name of Tilleul, a classic reissued under the more mysterious name of Vouloir être ailleurs C.G.
