Civet Cat Chypre 50ml

Civet Cat Chypre is a mesmerizing fusion of bright, floral tones cocooned within a sensual warmth. It unveils with a luminous entrance of bergamot, lemon, clary sage, and lavender, marrying citrusy zest with herbaceous freshness.

The heart reveals an enchanting bouquet of rose otto, rose absolute, jasmine absolute, complemented by the warm, woody undertones of cedarwood and a touch of earthiness from carrot seed. This harmonious blend masterfully balances floral sweetness with an underlying warm earthiness.

The base adds opulence with notes of orris butter, Indian sandalwood, labdanum, tonka bean absolute, real civet paste, and oakmoss absolute. These introduce a warm, powdery floral character, a hint of sweetness, a musky animalistic edge, and a grounding earthiness, culminating in a rich, luxurious depth.

Comparable to timeless French classics like Chanel No.5 and Shalimar, Civet Cat Chypre holds its own with its elegant sophistication. Like Chanel No.5's complex, balanced composition, it delivers a multi-faceted experience, but swaps aldehydes for a citrusy opening. It mirrors Shalimar's opulent oriental base but leans more towards a chypre profile with the notable inclusion of oakmoss. Perfect for romantic evenings and special occasions, it cloaks the wearer in an unforgettable warm, sensual embrace.
