A green-tinged floral composition from Houbigant, opening on bergamot and green notes before a blended floral heart, closing on musk and woods. La Belle Saison, The Beautiful Season, evokes summer's peak, consistent with its fresher, greener opening relative to the house's warmer amber-based releases from the same years.
