Virke

Virke presents itself as a refined, linear scent centered around a crisp, tart raspberry accord, supported by clean musk and a backdrop of aromatic woody notes. The fragrance unfolds with a lively, refreshing raspberry that feels both natural and subtly sweet, somewhat evoking wild berries picked fresh from a field. Over time, the raspberry mellows, allowing a subtle woody drydown to emerge—light, youthful, and textured with soft musk that adds warmth and structure without heaviness. The scent maintains a consistent profile across its long wear life, rarely shifting beyond its core accords. It carries a moderate sillage, making it noticeable but not overwhelming, particularly suited for daytime use. Some users describe a slightly artificial or chemical tone, especially in the opening, though this tends to fade as the fragrance settles. The dry wood and musk notes help balance the sweetness, preventing the scent from becoming cloying, and contribute to its sophisticated, unisex character.
