Like a sun-kissed postcard carried on the mistral breeze, How To Say Bicycle in French evokes the gentle rhythm of rural Provence. It’s an invitation to slow down, to trade urgency for the tender rituals of a life well savoured.
The fragrance opens in a burst of herbal luminosity — sweet basil, rosemary, and white thyme — their brightness softened by the serene caress of lavender and clary sage. Beneath, the quiet bitterness of gentian oil grounds the scent, conjuring images of wildflower-covered hills, the golden shimmer of late afternoon, and village squares alive with laughter and the delicate chime of glasses meeting in toast.
Inspired by the tale of two American dreamers who left behind comfort in search of character, this scent is a celebration of simplicity, resilience, and the quiet joy of rediscovery. More than perfume, it’s a moment you can carry — a memory steeped in lavender light and Provençal charm.
