G.A Dandy or Not

In 1925, D'Orsay launched Dandy, a fragrance that became iconic for its complexity. A daring fragrance with an avant-garde approach, combining rum, whiskey and yellow fruits. 100 years later, the house called on Sidonie Lancesseur to revisit this iconic fragrance. The result? A more acidic version while retaining the essence of its spices. At the top, refusing conventions, grapes join the spices of cardamom and black pepper. In the heart, black tea aligns itself in a fascinating and seductive way with orange blossom. And the ambivalence of this fragrance comes into its own when the cedar wood, patchouli and leathery accord reveal themselves, when this calm elegance lightens up after the acidic dandy impertinence that we know it for. Dandy Or Not Dandy G.A. or the portrait of Alfred Grimaud - the original name of Alfred d'Orsay. This absolute freedom, to choose or not to choose.
