Parterre Fragrances Run Of The River is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Jacques Chabert. Run Of The River opens with Bergamot, Violet Leaf, Elemi, and Mint, settles into a heart of Lemon, Orange Blossom, Juniper, and Thyme, and dries down to a base of Mate, Oakmoss, and Incense. Parterre Fragrances's Run Of The River carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

This is a captivating green aromatic that evolves beautifully on the skin. It's not a safe blind-buy for everyone, given some find the oakmoss a bit much, but if you're after something fresh and elegantly complex, it's a winner.

About

Run Of The River opens with a jolt of mint and bright bergamot, softened by the delicate powderiness of violet leaf. As it settles, a clean, herbal heart of juniper and thyme emerges, underscored by a surprising citrusy sweetness from orange blossom and lemon. The dry down introduces an earthy depth with mate and oakmoss, lifted by a wisp of subtle incense, creating a balanced and remarkably natural scent profile.
