Narcissus Grove — Нарциссовая роща

This scent smells like a freshly cut florist bouquet kept in a cold room. It opens with sharp green grass and crisp apple, leading into a heart of wet narcissus, freesia, and lily-of-the-valley. The base settles into a cool, mineral-rich musk with a touch of oakmoss that grounds the brighter floral notes.

The opening is a loud, refreshing blast of green stems and apple. Within an hour, it softens into a more focused floral arrangement centered on narcissus and jasmine. By the dry-down, the floral volume decreases, leaving a clean, cold musk and earthy vetiver trail that feels remarkably fresh on the skin.

Longevity is moderate. Most wearers report the fragrance remains detectable for five to six hours on the skin. The initial projection is quite strong during the first hour, particularly in cooler spring air, before it settles into an intimate scent bubble that stays close to the wearer for the remainder of the day.

Narcissus Grove performs best in spring and early summer. The green and aquatic accords shine in cool, damp weather, mirroring the feeling of thawing snow and early blooms. In high heat, the mineral notes can feel sharp, so it works best on temperate, overcast days when you want a crisp, clean scent.

No. The combination of green, indolic florals and mineral notes makes this a polarising composition. If you dislike sharp, stem-heavy green fragrances or struggle with animalic white florals, this may not be for you. We highly recommend sampling it first to see how the oakmoss and narcissus interact with your specific skin chemistry.

It is decidedly unisex. While the floral heart might skew traditionally feminine to some, the robust green grass, sharp vetiver, and cool mineral base provide a grounding, structural quality often found in classic masculine chypres. It is an ideal choice for anyone who prefers botanical, non-sweet, and bracingly clean fragrances.

This fragrance is excellent for daytime office wear, casual weekend outings, or walks in the park. Because it is non-sweet and crisp, it provides a professional, clean impression that does not overwhelm coworkers. It is a fantastic signature scent for someone who prefers a structured, atmospheric aroma over gourmand or heavy oriental profiles.

Unlike mainstream floral scents that often lean soapy or sweet, this perfume stays remarkably naturalistic, focusing on the scent of wet foliage and broken stems. It shares the green, stemmy character of Cristalle Eau Verte, but with a more pronounced, animalic narcissus core that gives it a unique, slightly challenging personality.

The projection is moderate. It creates a noticeable scent bubble of about arm's length for the first two hours. After that, it pulls closer to the skin, becoming a subtle, clean veil that appears periodically as you move. It is unlikely to fill a room unless sprayed generously in a very small space.

Yes, it works well with simple, linear citrus or woody fragrances. You could layer it with a light bergamot or cedarwood scent to add depth or round out the sharp green edges. However, because its own profile is quite complex and atmospheric, it often stands best on its own.
