Plumeria de Orris

A soft, powdery floral with a honeyed, creamy core, Plumeria de Orris centers on a rich, buttery orris and frangipani accord that opens with apricot and settles into a smooth sandalwood-vanilla embrace. The scent is floral without being bright or fresh, leaning into a vintage-inspired, luxurious elegance—like a velvet curtain drawn over a warm room. Its defining character is not just the floral and creamy notes, but the subtle animalic civet that emerges in the drydown, adding a soft, musky depth that enhances the perfume's sensuality without overwhelming it. Longevity is strong, with lasting well beyond ten hours, and the sillage is moderate, spreading gently without being aggressive. It feels unisex, though many perceive it as leaning toward the feminine spectrum due to its powdery, sweet, and silky character. The leather-like dryness and earthy vetiver deepen its complexity, giving the fragrance an oddly grounded yet romantic identity. It is not a loud or bold scent—projection is average, with a presence that is more intimate than showy, making it ideal for private wear or evening moments. The signature is the way its floral heart is infused with more than sweet fruit; the civet acts like a soft, warm breath in the base, ensuring it never feels flat. It’s not a fragrance designed for volume, but for a quiet, hypnotic allure that lingers on skin and clothes.
