Caudalie make lots of claims about their products being natural. And who doesn't enjoy a product more if you believe it's doing you good? The Caudalie cologne, Fleur de Vigne, is no exception. The packet of this fresh lemony spritz says:
Citrus fruits ultra-rich in vitamins lend freshness to this energizing splash. The subtle fragrance is an hommage to the Fleur de Vigne (grape blossom) that only blooms for several days in June, 110 days before the grape harvest.
I love the image of flowers growing on the vine and then being used for skin and fragrance products. Caudalie's 'anti-taches' skin perfecter makes the following claim on its packaging:
young girls once used the sap from freshly cut grapevine stalks to lighten spots and clarify their complexion.
We mobilized our team of researchers... After 3 years of research, they were successful in isolating and stabilizing a remarkable molecule from grapevine-stalks... with exceptional dark spot-correcting effect.
The image of young Italian girls using vine sap for their skin is just too romantic to pass up. (Needless to say, I use this product every day.) Natural products tick all the boxes for me. Great to feel that you're improving your skin without resorting to harsh chemicals.
By the same token, I'm delighted to wear the Fleur de Vigne fragrance as it's convincingly natural. And the smell is lemony and refreshing.
