Fragrance / 2021Fragrance / 2021La Valse by Wit & West is a fragrance for women and men. La Valse was launched in 2021. The nose behind this fragrance is Whitney Swales. Top notes are Black Pepper and Vanillin; middle note is Rose; base notes are Vanilla Bean, Benzoin and Patchouli. The waltz, a dance of grace and elegance, transports the dancer to a time when fashionable members of high-society originally discovered the novel sensation. Scandalized and beloved due to its flamboyant turns and close embrace, the nature of the waltz allowed for affections, conversation, and perfume to be shared only with one’s partner.
