Olympic Orchids Artisan Perfumes Elektra is a Parfum launched in 2010, created by Ellen Covey. Olympic Orchids Artisan Perfumes's Elektra carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a wildly divisive green-fruity scent; a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a 'mind-blowing' fig and blackcurrant masterpiece, for others, it's a 'sickly' and 'musty' assault on the senses. Sample first, definitely.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Given its long-lasting performance and moderate sillage, Elektra is best suited for scenarios where it won't overwhelm. It's a bit too bold for a typical office but shines on dates or casual outings where its unique character can be appreciated. Formal events are a possibility, but it leans away from traditional elegance.

About

Elektra opens with a formidable blast of 'green notes', reminiscent of crushed leaves or freshly cut grass, which can be intense and even startling for some. This verdant introduction slowly gives way to the star of the show: a deep, almost jammy black fig, complemented by the tart, juicy nuances of blackcurrant. As the scent evolves, a warm, inviting amber base emerges, grounding the vibrant fruitiness and adding a rich, sensual depth that lingers on the skin.
