Breeze

Inspired by Maison Francis Kurkdjian 724 Concentration: Eau de Parfum Season: All Fragrance Notes: Top: bergamot, cardamom and incense Heart: jasmine and cyclamen Base: musk, cedar and sandalwood Overview: Breeze opens with a bright, slightly fizzy bergamot sharpened by cardamom and a whisper of incense -- clean and citrusy but with just enough spice to keep it from being one-dimensional. The heart is where it earns its reputation: jasmine and cyclamen bloom into a soft, airy white floral accord that is equal parts fresh laundry and early spring morning. The dry down pulls back to cedar, sandalwood, and musk, skin-close and quietly luminous with a soapy cleanliness that lingers for hours. Reviewers consistently call it the closest thing to 724 in the clone space, with some noting the dry down actually rivals the original. Best for spring and summer, office and daytime wear. Longevity runs 6 to 8 hours on skin, longer on fabric. If 724 has been the one you keep coming back to but not buying, Breeze is the move.
