Accord Profile
Editorial Portrait
Civet invites a sense of wild enchantment, infused with an unexpected vibrancy at the opening. Bright citrus notes of orange and lemon combine with the warmth of spices, creating a sensation that feels alive and electric. As the fragrance unfolds, it reveals a heart of lush flowers—each bloom reminding us of a tropical garden, rich and alluring. The complexity of tuberose dances alongside tranquil linden blossom and the sweetness of frangipani, offering a lush midsection that captivates and intrigues.
As it settles, the base reveals a deep and textured warmth. Notes of rich resins, smooth Russian leather, and earthy vetiver intertwine, crafting an intimate and resonant aura. The animalic civet and musky tones ground the fragrance, lending a sensual edge that feels both sophisticated and bold. This scent does not shy away from leaving an impression, merging flesh and flora into a memory that lingers in the air long after you depart.
