The lily of the valley note is floral and green, yet enveloping. Its fresh, slightly sweet scent is invigorating and is a metaphor for the typical scent of spring.
It owes its name to the shape of its flowers. Lily of the valley is a rhizome plant with small white bells from the lily family (Liliaceae), which spreads in gardens and undergrowth. A single species occurs on all continents in various forms.

A commitment to tradition
Professional collaboration with Robertet enables Carrière Frères to offer an exquisite product steeped in tradition. In August, the Szechuan pepper berries are harvested in the Himalayas, home of the Qiang people, where they are grown at an altitude of over 2000 metres. Szechuan pepper is particularly revered in the Mao district. It is strong and aromatic and is cultivated using innovative, environmentally friendly, traditional methods. Each berry is picked by hand on local farms, sorted and dried in the sun. Robertet's research work, from harvesting to selection, brings out the full flavour and freshness of this spice.
