≈ $30 · 50ml · approx. retail

Couture is a 1988 woody-chypre feminine from the Halston house, pairing a light citrus opening with a rose-and-jasmine heart over a classic mossy, ambery chypre base. It followed the original 1975 Halston in a more restrained, understated register and is now largely out of regular production.
