Oriza L. Legrand 1914 EDP
Chypre Mousse
Oriza L. Legrand Chypre Mousse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1914. Chypre Mousse opens with Green Notes, Fennel, and Mint, settles into a heart of Angelica, Oakmoss, Galbanum, and Fern, and dries down to a base of Vetiver and Pine. Oriza L. Legrand's Chypre Mousse carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.
Chypre Mousse is a polarising, utterly unique green chypre that's either a masterful, super-realistic damp forest floor or an unwearable, medicinal headache. Sample first, because when it's bad, it's really bloody awful.What our verdicts mean →

Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Best Occasions
This perfume is long-lasting with strong projection, making it too potent for an office unless applied very lightly. Its unique, earthy character isn't universally appealing for dates or formal events, but it shines in casual settings where its distinctive profile can be appreciated without overwhelming others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
