Sylvaine Delacourte Virgile is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Sylvaine Delacourte and Irène Farmachidi. Virgile opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Pink Pepper, and Rosemary, settles into a heart of Rose, Geranium, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Leather, Cedar, and Vanilla. Sylvaine Delacourte's Virgile carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Virgile is a divisive aromatic vanilla that some find uniquely herbaceous and calming, while others are left cold by what they perceive as a basic, even medicinal, scent. Definitely one to sample first.

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.

About

Opening with a zesty burst of mandarin and bergamot, Virgile quickly introduces an intriguing blend of rosemary and pink pepper, giving it an initial herbal-spicy kick. The heart reveals soft rose and geranium alongside earthy sage, building towards a creamy vanilla base. Cedar and a subtle hint of leather ground the fragrance, creating a sophisticated and smoothly textured dry-down that lingers with an aromatic sweetness.
