Orris Tattoo 29
by Parle Moi de Parfum
Orris Tattoo 29 is a softly intense, highly transparent orris fragrance with a cool, buttery, and powdery core. It unfolds with a green, fig-like freshness that lingers beneath a silken layers of orris, violet, and musky elegance, creating a quiet, intimate scent that feels like a second skin. The drydown is clean and polished—a smooth, refined airiness that evokes polished marble, skin-scent intimacy, and a delicate interplay of starch, earth, and subtle sweetness. It lacks strong projection or dramatic evolution but sustains a soft presence throughout the day, especially in spring and summer. Some appreciate its minimalist clarity and sophistication, while others find it fleeting or overly restrained.
