Jesús del Pozo Duende is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1992, created by Olivier Cresp. Duende settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Mimosa, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Thyme, and Wormwood. Jesús del Pozo's Duende carries a Favourite verdict, a yellow floral-led wear.

This 90s gem is a divisive one. For some, it's a beautifully fresh, green-floral, reminiscent of walking through a dewy meadow. For others, it's a synthetic sour scrubber. If you can hunt down an original bottle, you might be in for a treat; newer formulations might be where the real split in opinion lies.

About

Duende opens with a bright, almost tart, citrus blast, quickly moving into a heart dominated by lush yellow florals. Mimosa and jasmine intertwine, creating a gently sweet and powdery bouquet, while subtle green and aromatic notes of thyme and wormwood prevent it from becoming cloying. The base settles into a clean, soft woody embrace of cedar and sandalwood, maintaining an airy freshness throughout.
