Pélargonium

by Nathalie Feisthauer

Aedes de Venustas Pélargonium is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Nathalie Feisthauer. Pélargonium opens with Cardamom, Bergamot, Pepper, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Orris, Geranium, Carrot Seeds, and Elemi, and dries down to a base of Guaiac Wood, Vetiver, Oakmoss, and Musk. Aedes de Venustas's Pélargonium carries a Favourite verdict, a earthy-led wear.

A truly unique aromatic green dream that suffers from an all-too-common flaw: for many, it simply vanishes too quickly. While it delivers a nuanced, high-quality experience, be prepared for it to be a fleeting pleasure.

Its fresh, subtle, and generally inoffensive aromatic profile makes it ideal for office wear and casual settings. However, its often-reported weak longevity and sillage mean it lacks the impact needed for formal events or a commanding presence on a date.

About

Pélargonium ignites with a vibrant, peppery citrus blast of bergamot, mandarin, and fiery Sichuan pepper, beautifully intertwined with aromatic clary sage and a hint of cardamom. The heart unfolds into a fresh, green geranium leafiness, made earthy and subtly sweet by carrot seeds and a touch of powdery iris. The journey concludes on a sophisticated woody base of guaiac wood, vetiver, and cedar, softened by a whisper of musk.
