Maya Njie — Les Fleurs
Eau de Parfum
Bergamot, the crisp citrus top note, provides a green and vigorous opening. Beneath lies fruitful, bright heart notes of sweet fig, neroli and magnolia. It is rounded off with subtle base notes of floral musks and woods. Inspired by Minnie Riperton’s song ‘Les Fleur’ which graced our radio airwaves in 1970, this green floral scent is an unbound celebration of life, love and creation.
With a fragrance named Les Fleurs, one might expect a bouquet of the usual suspects, but in Maya Njie’s artful hands, this fragrance takes a sophisticated and complex approach to floral. Grounded by a clean and dry wood accord and pulpy fig, Les Fleurs’ dewy opening shines with citric top notes. As with most of Njie’s work, the clarity and balance in the composition makes it an extremely wearable delight. As Minnie Riperton sings in the song from which this fragrance derives its name, “Kiss my petals and weave me through a dream.”
