D.S. & Durga Steamed Rainbow is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by David Seth Moltz. Steamed Rainbow opens with Orange, Mandarin, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Almond Blossom, Cedar, and Grass, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Violet. D.S. & Durga's Steamed Rainbow carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Prepare for a blast from the past, or maybe just a sniff of plastic. "Steamed Rainbow" is a divisive one; some call it a masterpiece of nostalgic, wet-green bliss, while others get nothing but mildew, pool toys, or even worse. It's a hyper-realistic, fleeting ode to childhood summers that you'll either adore or recoil from.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Despite its light projection and poor longevity, this scent is best suited for casual wear, capturing a playful summer mood. Its clean, fresh, and green profile would be too informal for office or formal settings, but perfectly fits outdoor activities or daytime dates.

About

Imagine sun-warmed grass after a summer shower, infused with the zesty burst of orange and mandarin. A peculiar, almost steamed humidity hangs in the air, tinged with the delicate sweetness of almond blossom and the earthy depth of vetiver. It's a green, aromatic accord that captures the distinct, slightly damp essence of a childhood summer, settling into soft, powdery violet as it fades.
