Olympéa, released by Rabanne in 2015 and composed by Dominique Ropion, Anne Flipo and Loc Dong, is woody and fresh in equal measure, with spicy, sweet, ambery and citrus sides. It is best known for its salty vanilla.
It opens with ginger flower, which gives a light, spicy floral note, green mandarin for a sharp, zesty freshness, and water jasmine for a clean, watery floral tone. The heart is the signature: salt and vanilla together create a sweet-and-salty effect, like warm skin after the sea. The base is smooth and warm, with sandalwood for creaminess, ambergris for a salty radiance and cashmere wood for a soft, musky woodiness.
Many wearers find it long lasting, others moderate, and the trail is moderate to strong. It is voted for summer and spring, more for day than night, though it works across the year, for someone who likes sweet-salty vanilla scents.
Olympéa — unisex fragrance by Rabanne (released 2015). Top notes: Water Jasmine, Green Mandarin, Ginger flower. Heart notes: Vanilla, Salt. Base notes: Cashmere Wood, Ambergris, Sandalwood. — Parfica open fragrance database
