Blackberry is dark and slightly winey, raspberry brighter and more tart, grapefruit adds a bitter pink lift, and freesia comes in early with its peppery, clean floral snap. It is a busy start and a very pretty one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe heart is where the money has gone. Gardenia is thick, white and almost soapy, tuberose brings creamy heft, jasmine adds heady sweetness, rose gives the whole arrangement a recognisable centre, and water lily keeps a cool aquatic line running through the middle so the four richer flowers do not become suffocating. This is a proper bouquet, built rather than sketched.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe base is short and clever. Patchouli grounds the flowers with earth, musk softens and holds them, and peach sits in with them adding a soft, slightly fuzzy sweetness that is unusual in a base and gives the finish a warm skin quality. Expect strong presence in the first hour, then seven or eight hours of close, warm floral wear. It reads clearly feminine, suits spring and autumn, and is dressed up rather than casual. As a gift it suits somebody who wears perfume properly and will appreciate the quality. Emilie Bouge composed it in 2010.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrecourt is a small French niche house whose scents are associated with the perfumer Emilie Bouge, who was born near Grasse. Avenue Montaigne sits in a collection that also includes Ambre Noir, Captive, Esprit Mondain, Subversif, Mauvais Garcon and Noces de Nerola.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brecourt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54546735464775,"sku":"BTS380888","price":68.7,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/images_18_c022cb2b-dee1-447f-97fa-0ea9c2d620d2.jpg?v=1786969293","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/brecourt-avenue-montaigne-eau-de-parfum-gift-set","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
