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.

While praised for its uniqueness, Viride's potent green and spicy profile, along with its strong initial projection, make it less suitable for office or sport. It truly shines in casual settings or evenings out, evoking a sophisticated, rugged charm without being overtly formal.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

About

It kicks off with a sharp, bracing blend of lavender, wormwood, and artemisia, instantly whisking you to a cool, damp forest floor. The heart introduces a surprising hint of jasmine, a subtle floral counterpoint to the dominant green. This then settles into a deep, earthy base of juniper, fir resin, cedar, and a surprising tobacco note, delivering a raw, natural, and powerfully aromatic experience.
