Infini (1970)
Infini opens with the particular brightness that aldehydes lend — a sparkling, slightly soapy lift that makes the narcissus and lily-of-the-valley feel almost crystalline.

By the editors · 2 min readInfini opens with the particular brightness that aldehydes lend — a sparkling, slightly soapy lift that makes the narcissus and lily-of-the-valley feel almost crystalline. The heart is a classic French floral chord: iris, rose, and tuberose building a dense, slightly abstract femininity with lilac adding a cool, powdery shade. The base transitions to vetiver and sandalwood, two dryish materials that pull the fragrance toward cool elegance.
The overall arc is restrained and deliberate. This is not a perfume that transforms dramatically on the skin so much as it deepens steadily, hour by hour — a quality that suited the 1970s taste for refinement over spectacle.
