Fragrance development

The opening is radiant and clear: Fresh citrus notes of bergamot, orange, lemon, and lime open the fragrance with a luminous energy that immediately captures attention – elegant, vibrant, and finely balanced.

At its heart, a multifaceted, velvety floral composition unfolds. Jasmine and Rose de Mai lend depth and class to the fragrance, while heliotrope and violet contribute a soft, powdery elegance. Blackcurrant buds provide a subtle fruity tension, sensually enveloped by tuberose and ylang-ylang.

The base is warm, complex, and utterly captivating. Oakmoss and leather meet spicy accents of cumin, nutmeg, and clove. Patchouli, labdanum, and Peru balsam give the fragrance a resinous, almost hypnotic depth. Vanilla and ambrette provide a creamy warmth, while iris, vetiver, and woody notes round off the perfume elegantly and long-lasting.

The story behind the fragrance

Velvet Intrigue tells a story of contrasts: light and shadow, freshness and depth, elegance and instinct. Inspired by classic Chypre compositions, reinterpreted for the modern world, this fragrance embodies timeless class with a mysterious, almost magnetic allure.

It is the scent of an evening that begins openly – and ends unforgettably.

A perfume for people who know that true attraction does not need to be explained.
