The Merchant of Venice Imperial Emerald is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Imperial Emerald opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, Iris, and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Tuberose, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Vanilla. The Merchant of Venice's Imperial Emerald carries a Statement verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This is a gorgeous, albeit polarising, white floral that gets a hard time for its performance and recent reformulation. Love the opulent bottle, but don't expect a wallflower. She's a drama queen with a lot to say, at least for the first hour.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its bold floral character and significant projection make it less suitable for office wear, but perfect for dates and evening events. The warmth and elegance of the amber-musk base lend themselves well to formal occasions, but its strength may still be too much for tightly packed formal settings.

About

Imperial Emerald opens with a bright burst of citrus from sparkling bergamot and mandarin, quickly warmed by a hint of pink pepper. The heart unfurls into a rich, heady bouquet of white florals, dominated by creamy tuberose and sweet orange blossom, softened by powdery iris and verdant lily. The dry-down settles into a sensual, warm embrace of musky amber, patchouli, and vanilla, leaving a lingering, sophisticated trail.
