Why It's Escentual:

Parfums de Marly's Athenais was created to capture a spirit that is equal parts vivacious, charming, and undeniably flamboyant. By pairing the immediate brightness of Mediterranean citrus with a deeply comforting amber-powdery base, it strikes the perfect balance between uplifting freshness and irresistible warmth.

The fragrance has a spellbinding, joyful effervescence that turns heads wherever you go. While it can be worn effortlessly year-round, its sun-drenched opening and creamy heart truly come into their own during spring and summer afternoons, or whenever you want to add a radiant sparkle to your day.

The Best Way To Use It:

We also recommend the following perfume tips:

• Target areas where the blood vessels are closest to the skin, allowing the fragrance to emanate. Common pulse points include the wrists, neck, behind the ears, and inner elbows.
• Resist the urge to rub your wrists together after applying perfume. This can break down the fragrance molecules and alter the scent.
• Hold the perfume bottle about 6–8 inches away from your skin when spraying. This ensures a more even distribution of the fragrance.
• Keep your perfume in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and temperature fluctuations. This helps maintain the integrity of the fragrance.
• If your perfume fades throughout the day, consider reapplying to pulse points or areas where your skin is warm.
