Preparation Parfumee
by Andree Putman
Preparation Parfumee unfolds like a quiet, rain-washed forest morning—fresh, green, and alive with the scent of damp earth, wet bark, and wild mint. Its core is a delicate balance of coriander, pepper, driftwood, and water lily, creating a cool, aromatic, and slightly vegetal atmosphere. The fragrance captures the essence of a dewy branch after rain, with a clean, vaguely metallic freshness that lingers like morning mist. It's not floral in any overt way, but when it settles, it evokes the inner peace of a quiet woods after a storm—delicate, introspective, and naturally uncontrived.

- +It blends seamlessly with the wearer's skin and complements light, casual clothing
Cons
- −It lacks longevity and holds little sillage, making it imperceptible on dry skin over time
- −The scent can feel thin or withdrawn after the first hour, lacking depth
- −Some users find it too subdued or unremarkable, though it’s not for everyone
