Pernoire Vitias is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Andreas Wilhelm. Vitias opens with Bergamot, Lime, Pepper, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Angelica, Guaiac Wood, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Sea Water, Musk, and Ambergris. Pernoire's Vitias carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

This marine-freshie is a proper crowd-pleaser that's bound to get you compliments. But there's a strong whiff of 'been there, done that' about it, and the eye-watering price tag for something so familiar has some reaching for the smelling salts.

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.

Best For:

Date

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile makes it an ideal choice for the office and casual wear. While it has moderate projection, its uplifting nature makes it suitable for date nights or active use, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

Vitias opens with a vibrant, peppery citrus blast of lime and bergamot, sharp and invigorating. As it settles, an aquatic heart emerges, salty and fresh like ocean spray, underpinned by the subtle, clean earthiness of angelica and iris. The base dries down to a musky, driftwood-like ambergris, bringing a surprising depth and a hint of a mentholated, pencil-shaving accord that adds a unique twist to its otherwise classic fresh profile.
