Imperial Emerald

Imperial Emerald unfolds with a bright, citrusy burst of bergamot and mandarin orange, layered over a delicate iris and pink pepper that adds a subtle, spicy lift. The heart reveals a lush, creamy tuberose at the center, joined by rose, orange blossom, and ylang-ylang, all wrapped in a soft, powdery embrace that feels both elegant and intimate. The base develops into a warm, ambery, musky drydown with vanilla, benzoin, and patchouli, creating a soft-sweet floral oriental that lingers with moderate projection. Despite its luxurious feel and refined composition, the perfume has been reformulated, and many notable reviews point to a diminished longevity and a shift toward a less complex, more synthetic character in later batches. Some note that the fragrance fades quickly, evolving into an air-freshener-like aroma that causes discomfort for sensitive wearers.
