The story
Habanera White is the white-floral of the Habanera line — the brightest of the four, and the easiest to wear in daylight. It opens on orange and bergamot with a bite of pink pepper, then moves into a full white-floral heart: jasmine, tuberose and ylang-ylang, cooled by lily of the valley. The base is sandalwood, cashmeran, benzoin and vanilla — creamy and warm, holding the flowers in place rather than sweetening them.

The object
What you hold
Sold directly by the house, so the price reflects what is in the bottle rather than what surrounds it.
Who makes Aurora fragrances
Aurora is a niche perfume house. Our fragrances are composed by a small circle of perfumers, several of whom are behind the most worn fragrances of the last thirty years. Each is built from fine raw materials and bottled in weighted glass with its own presentation box. We sell directly, so the price reflects the bottle rather than the shelf it sits on.
