By the editors · 2 min readLaurent Le Guernec's Rain Splash 2016 captures the moments after summer rain with considered accuracy: wet grass and clementine in the opening with the green-resinous character of cypress — a citrus-fresh accord with structural depth. Wild strawberry provides a sweet-fruity accent without overwhelming the green character. The heart opens into rain-soaked flowers: sunflower's warm honeyed quality, passion flower's exotic-fruity richness, white orchid's clean sweetness. Moss, teak wood, and amber in the base ground the composition with earthy, woody depth that prevents the fresh opening from simply dissipating. A seasonal limited edition that performs better than its format demands; Le Guernec found something worth finding.
