About This Perfume
Think Creamy white florals with a spicy resin glow: that is Carine Roitfeld Forgive Me. It opens with pink pepper, Tunisian orange blossom and tangerine, moves into Indian tuberose, gardenia and ylang-ylang and settles on patchouli, labdanum and olibanum. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum works across all four seasons and is a daytime scent. A good pick for date nights. Released in 2023.
Wearers report that it lasts through a full day, and projects to about arm's length.
