Tauer Perfumes · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2020

≈ $150 · 50ml · approx. retail

A floral aquatic departure from Tauer's typical amber-heavy style, opening with fennel, bergamot, Sicilian lemon and lavender. Herbal notes, orange blossom and bourbon geranium lead into a base of sea notes, tonka bean, cedar and amber. Named after the blue pigment phthalocyanine, meant to evoke clear water and open sky.
