Extatic
Balmain · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2014
≈ $54 · 90ml · approx. retail
Extatic (2014) pairs a fruity-floral opening of pear and osmanthus with a soft orchid-and-jasmine heart over cashmere wood and sandalwood. It reads as an easy, contemporary floral aimed at a younger Balmain customer than the house's vintage chypres.
