Anna breaks the dawn with her cheerful voice when the boat moors on the riverbank. The new day unveils a magical spectacle of rippling colours over Amsterdam. The market comes to life and Anna whirls around it, bringing the spray of the canal and the fragrance of flowers with her. In her eyes, you can see the reflection of the Singel, and if you linger in her naive beauty, it will make you nostalgic.
A crowd of suitors will woo her at the flower market, but only one can steal Anna's heart.

HOW IT WEARS
Anna opens with a really fresh and uplifting Marine note. This is the most prominent initlaly and feels like a gentle sea breeze, then we gradually get the sweet Rose and Ylang Ylang creating a little more depth to the fragrance. Such a wonderful pairing - Rose and Marine, we love the airiness, they feel weightless on the skin and super clean.
Anna wears like the most perfect white linen shirt, it has the carefree elegance of a European woman. Of course Anna takes us to the canals of Amsterdam - she is incredibly chic, riding her bicycle through the city, along the canals, the fresh scent of the water is flowing through her long hair as she rides. She has her bicycle basket filled with wonderful fresh roses on a picturesque spring morning. We have the perfect blend of Rose, Marine notes and clean, fresh air in this fragrance.
ABOUT THE BRAND
Born in 1774, Pierre-Francois Lubin lived in a period thought to be the most eventful in France’s history. He began his career as a perfume apprentice at the age of 10 to the famous Jean-Louis Fargeon in 1784. During this time under Fargeon’s tutelage, Lubin came to be entrusted with the beauty recipes of the French Royal Court. Fargeon came from a dynasty of expert perfumers and was Marie Antoinette’s official fragrance supplier. Renowned as the 'holder of the secrets of beauty of the old court of France' and thanks to his illustrious patronage, Lubin became the favourite perfumer of many European Courts. In 1821, he became the appointed official supplier of the King of England George IV. Then, in 1823 perfumer to the great Tsar of Russia Alexander I.
