Vermeil by Bienaimé is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women and men. The nose behind this fragrance is Patrice Revillard. Top notes are Carrot Seeds and Aldehydes; middle notes are Iris, Violet, Rose and Raspberry; base notes are Heliotrope, White Musk, Sandalwood and Tolu Balsam. It opens with Carrot Seeds, Aldehydes. The heart moves into Iris, Violet. In the dry-down, Heliotrope, White Musk give it its base. From the way people describe wearing it, this comes across best as photorealistic vintage lipstick and makeup scent; complex evolution from opening to dry down; comforting, cloud-like sillage and presence. The trade-off is that it may feel expensive price point for the genre; may smell dated or mature to some; sillage can be too intimate or weak depending on taste and setting. Taken together, the feedback points to a scent that feels easy to understand on first wear, but still depends heavily on whether the greener, sweeter, or sharper nuances fit your preferences.
