White Vicuna

White Vicuna is the house's white tea parfum, a light and fresh floral that the brand says brings together purity, boldness and sophistication. It is soft by design, meant to accompany rather than announce. It opens on a bouquet of white flowers, lily of the valley and gardenia, with the gardenia standing a little above the rest. Cardamom and white pepper add a gentle, spiced spark in the heart. The base rests on white tea and musk, which give it a clean, calm finish. One wearer calls it ethereal and youthful, like a bright spring day, and another finds it a wonderful gardenia perfume. It is a quiet scent. Two detailed accounts describe mild intensity and sillage that stays close to the skin, though the votes on staying power are spread from weak to eternal. Spring and summer are the favoured seasons, and day wear is voted far more often than night. The brand lists it in its universal collection, and the votes lean slightly female. The house lists the 100 ml Parfum at 350 pounds, which many raters call steep. It suits anyone who wants a refined, airy white floral for the office or a bright day, and not a trail that fills the room.
