Hortense, Queen of Holland, was the daughter of Jos̩phine and Napoleon III's mother. She was beautiful, seductive, and intelligent, with blue eyes and golden hair scented with the åÊragrances of Dutch flowers and spices from the lands she dreamt of. In 1810, Jean Ranc̩ dedicated a fragrant masterpiece to her as a tribute to her exuberance and passionate spirit.

Today Jeanne Sandra Ranc̩ has delightfully arranged the same Oriental scents into a bold composition of mysterious and spicy notes, enriched by a warm seductive base, which creates a sparkling, youthful aromatic adventure with irresistible sensuousness.

The bouquet begins and seduces with its piquant notes of cardamom, pepper and bergamot, which lead on to delightful hints of cinnamon, all wrapped up in the delicate scent of May rose. The warm base of precious woods, incense and vanilla is brought out by the rich splendour of spices.
