Everyone’s favorite illuminated manuscript, the Tres Riches Heures is a visual playground for the Medieval aristocracy. Painted in purest blue made of lapis lazuli, and amazing greens, each scene painstakingly detailed and lovingly brought to life from the castles looming in the background (with every noble turret delineated) to the tiny hawks that the lords and ladies carry prettily into the summer field in August.

Our thoughts on the Tres Riches Heures would be the indulgence of sweetmeats and buttery crusts and the finest zesty fruits (in this case the most perfumed apricots). The lightest dusting of spices gives it depth. Rich, foody, and oh so delicious. A fragrance fit for a queen.
