Description
The original Andrée Putman fragrance, later relaunched under the name L'Original, is a minimalist Olivia Giacobetti composition built around pepper, water lily, coriander, and driftwood. It feels like wet stone, pale woods, green spice, and quiet floral air: restrained, architectural, and serene rather than decorative. Préparation Parfumée was renamed L'Original in 2015 when the brand was reintroduced.
