Kilian Forbidden Games

Ripe peach, warm cinnamon and golden honey. Forbidden Games by Kilian is fruit with depth, not a crisp orchard scent.

The peach leads, juicy and full. Cinnamon adds a dry spice around it, and honey brings warmth. Rose and jasmine give the fruit a petal-soft setting in the heart. Vanilla and opoponax, a sweet, resinous material, create a soft balsamic base.

It changes as it wears. The bright peach gives way to flowers, then to honey and vanilla, which makes an evening with it feel like it unfolds.

It’s a candlelit-dinner kind of perfume, ideal if you love peach but want it framed by flowers and warmth.

1.7 oz of Eau de Parfum.
