Talbot Runhof · 2021

Fresh · Floral · Spicy

Talbot Runhof Purple Velvet is a women's perfume that carries the brightness of lemon and cardamom into a floral, suede-tinged heart of iris, jasmine and tuberose, then settles into sandalwood and oud.

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Talbot Runhof Purple Satin is a floral and sweet women's fragrance, powdery and creamy with a lightly spicy oriental feel.
