how to layer & wear gourmand scents

For the best gourmand experience, layering is key. Start your routine in the shower with a scented body wash to create a base of fragrance and clean, hydrated skin. After gently towel drying, apply a nourishing lotion to lock in moisture and add a second wave of scent. Finish with a generous spritz of body mist on your pulse points for a fresh, long-lasting touch that completes your scent story. 

Gourmand scents are meant to be savored. Treat yourself to the sweet coziness of Vanilla Cashmere, the creamy allure of Crème de Pistachio, or the playful joy of Strawberry Dream and make every day a little sweeter.
