005 Riviera Absolue

Fragrantica carries the same ten materials, files the fragrance as citrus aromatic and prints the caviar lime under its other name, finger lime — citrus australasica either way. Readers have been reviewing it since the summer and their votes put that lime first, then ambroxan and bergamot.

The house has had the page up since 1 June 2026 and the 100 ml is in stock at 185 EUR, with a 15 ml added on 16 July at 60 EUR; only the 100 + 15 ml pairing is sold out. Its pyramid is written with the sourcing in it — bergamot essence from Italy, Moroccan neroli, ginger from Madagascar and Ivory Coast, Guatemalan cardamom — which the notes here reduce to the materials themselves.

Shown at Paris Perfume Week in May 2026 and out on 2 June, at 185 EUR for 100 ml of extrait, through the house's own site and selected stores. Bon Parfumeur traces the fragrance to a drink rather than a place: founder Ludovic Bonneton says a caviar lime cocktail on the Riviera "left me with an electric spark of freshness". Paul Guerlain composed it, and describes pairing the lime's tart brightness with spicy ginger and green tomato leaf to keep it herbaceous rather than sweet.
