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

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.
