1996

An invigorating citrus-chypre fragrance named after the iconic English Oak (Quercus robur). It opens with an energetic, sparkling accord of citrus groves, lemon, lime, and bergamot, balanced by a soft, elegant floral heart of lily-of-the-valley and sweet jasmine. The drydown anchors the airy citrus in a reassuring, earthy base of oakmoss, golden amber, and creamy sandalwood.
