Eidola
by Navitus Parfums
Eidola is a bright, feminine floral-fruity fragrance centered around rose, peach, jasmine, and bergamot, developed in collaboration with Francis Kurkdjian. It opens with a sparkling, effervescent citrus and fruity top, evoking a morning of llovizna and juicy citrus, before settling into a soft, creamy rose core with a fluffy vanilla base. The scent remains delicate and wearable, with a hint of cedar in the background adding a touch of dry, clean contrast. Many note a charming balance between freshness and depth, with a moderate projection that softens over time. A standout characteristic is its versatility across various occasions, particularly in spring and summer, though some users find it too intense or unbalanced. It performs well on most skin types, with longevity often extending beyond 8 hours, and is considered a layered, characterful signature scent for women.
Pros
- +Exhibits a high degree of freshness and youthful elegance, perfect for spring and summer wear.
- +Beautifully constructed floral-fruity accord that feels both delicate and substantial, with depth beyond typical fruity florals.
- +Longevity exceeds expectations on most skin types, lasting a full day even if initial projection fades.
Cons
- −Some users perceive a harsh, overly synthetic note reminiscent of vetiver or ambruxan, causing irritation or aversion.
- −The balance of floral and fruity notes may be too heavy or cloying for sensitive or minimalist preferences.
- −Presents a processed or unrefined quality for some, likening it to mass-market marketed perfumes despite its higher price point.
