By the editors · 2 min readThe original Olympéa's green-mandarin brightness is submerged here beneath a thicker, warmer veil. What arrives first is a salted-vanilla accord that feels almost gourmand, though the salt keeps it from tipping into dessert territory. There's amber in the base, heavy and resinous, but it's the interplay between creamy sandalwood and a peculiar marine note that defines the middle hours—skin-close but persistent.
This wears sweeter and rounder than its predecessor, with less of that sharp, athletic quality. The sillage is moderate rather than aggressive, despite the "Intense" label. It reads as evening-appropriate, suited to someone drawn to oriental vanillas but wary of cloying sweetness. The bottle's familiar laurel-wreath design remains, now rendered in deeper gold.
