This fragrance contains IFRA compliant oakmoss absolute to ensure that the fragrance can be as faithful as possible while maintaining skin safety. This also has the highest percentage of oakmoss out of any of the chypes that I offer.

Smells like the vanity of a beautiful French model, I love it so much. Perfect balance of greenery and florals.
Love all of the Cirrus fragrances I have tried so far - so original and addictive!
Cirrus parfums has taught me I love fragrances I would have never thought. This would have never been a fragrance I thought I would have enjoyed however after sampling it I knew I had to immediately purchase the larger bottle. I can’t describe this scent as I’m so new to these notes but I wear this to bed on those days I want something juicy and potent. I don’t know where I get the juicy/raisin like scent as I’m still learning about notes but I absolutely love this, husband describes it as an antique scent however he also enjoys it. Cirrus is just so unique overall, love this scent!
This is a new spin on what a vintage chypre fragrance smells like. If you have seen the movie Saltburn, this is what I expect that mansion to smell like. Its old money but there is something dirty about it, its lost its feeling of being "classy." Its the smell of dark wood furniture that is regularly waxed. Its rich and resinous in a way that feels like someone dipped the wood in spiced honey. There are immaculately maintained gardens full of flowers, but there is something filthy about those flowers. It opens slightly fresh with the bergamot but the woody spice blends with the indolic and almost fruity florals making it pretty much smell what you imagine a warm amber color to smell like. This is a hard to describe fragrance but I know I love it.
The oakmoss really pops out to me, giving a rich woody warmth to this fragrance. I think it could be because this fragrance contains a mixture of natural absolute and processed absolute oakmoss.
This fragrance creates a really solid scent bubble around you. This also lasted about 7 hours on my skin.
I’ve described other resinous fragrances as smelling like “your grandpa’s old trunk in the attic.” This is your grandma’s old trunk in the attic. But not just any grandma. This grandma is classy and feminine, intelligent and well-traveled. Jane from Tarzan vibes. She has stories, and you’re not sure how many of them are true until she breaks out this old trunk and shows you the evidence, black-and-white photos and dusty keepsakes from all over the world, sweet incense, pressed flowers, and old bottles of vintage perfume. More floral than I prefer, but definitely smells antique!
