Pictura Fragrans Surinam Vert is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by DL Jenkins. Surinam Vert opens with Coconut Water, Green Notes, Passionfruit, and Guava, settles into a heart of Earthy, Magnolia, Heliotrope, and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Night-Blooming Jasmine, Musk, Amber, and Peru Balsam. Pictura Fragrans's Surinam Vert carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a brilliantly divisive, wild ride of a fragrance. If you want to smell like an adventurous, exotic traveller, this is your ticket, but be warned, it's not for everyone's chemistry or sensibilities.

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.

Sport

With its strong sillage and long-lasting nature, this scent is a bit too loud for the office and might be overwhelming in formal settings. It's perfectly suited for casual outings, dates, and even sports where its unique character can shine without dominating.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Moss

Other declarable allergens

  • Myroxylon Balsamum Pereirae Balsam Extract from Peru Balsam
  • 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

Surinam Vert launches with an arresting burst of tropical fruit - think juicy passionfruit and ripe guava - immediately countered by a startling, yet perfectly integrated, gasoline note. This unconventional opening swiftly transitions into a humid jungle heart, where lush gardenia, frangipani, and orchid entwine with earthy petrichor and green forest accords, creating a wonderfully immersive rainforest atmosphere. The journey concludes on a deep, musky base of night-blooming jasmine, warm amber, and grounding moss, leaving an intriguing, long-lasting trail.
