The Character and History of the Fragrance
SKLVA [cassis chypre] is a chypre unisex fragrance from the Ukrainian brand SKLVA, released in 2020.
This eau de toilette has an expressive, composed character and a very powerful sillage. It is intended for those who enjoy noticeable compositions with green bitterness, spices and a deep mossy-woody finish.
The name cassis chypre accurately conveys the central idea of the release: the juicy tartness of blackcurrant is combined with a classic chypre structure.
As a result, the fragrance does not smell like a simple berry accord, but rather like a multifaceted composition in which fruity freshness gradually gives way to incense, herbs, moss and dry woody nuances.
The Fragrance Pyramid and Development
Perfumer Anna Sokolova worked on the creation of the fragrance.
She succeeded in creating a contrasting development: a cool, slightly sparkling opening, a rich aromatic heart and a substantial chypre trail that lingers on the skin and clothes for a long time.
The composition opens with aldehydic freshness, the green scent of blackcurrant leaves and a spicy duo of cardamom and nutmeg.
Elemi adds resinous transparency, so the first minutes feel full-bodied and dynamic, without any sense of heaviness.
In the heart, blackcurrant becomes richer and more tart.
Incense brings dry balsamic depth, while juniper and sage sustain the cool aromatic effect, and green nuances maintain the connection with the opening accord.
The base reveals the classic side of the chypre profile: amber softens the composition, oakmoss creates its recognizable earthy texture, while patchouli and vetiver add dryness, bitterness and refined woody austerity.
The finish is long-lasting, composed and noticeable, evoking a cool forest after rain and dark berries resting on damp greenery.
Who It Suits and When to Wear It
SKLVA [cassis chypre] was created as a unisex fragrance and develops equally intriguingly on women’s and men’s skin.
It will appeal to those who prefer green, mossy, spicy and woody fragrances with character rather than sweet gourmand compositions.
Because of its very powerful sillage, this eau de toilette is best suited to cool weather, transitional seasons and evening outings.
The fragrance is appropriate for occasions where expressiveness matters: a walk, a meeting, an intimate event or the theatre.
On a hot day or in a small enclosed space, it may seem too intense, so moderation is especially important.
Precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing are not provided for this release in the database.
Start with a small amount and see how the composition behaves on your own skin: its powerful sillage quickly becomes the main accessory of your look.
Similarities and Its Place in the Brand’s Style
In terms of mood, the fragrance may appeal to fans of Estée Lauder Knowing, as well as to lovers of classic chypres with green bitterness, moss and vetiver.
At the same time, SKLVA [cassis chypre] stands out through its emphasis on blackcurrant, juniper and incense: its character feels cooler, spicier and more resinous.
Within the Ukrainian brand SKLVA’s collection, this release comes across as a confident take on the traditional chypre formula.
It shows that a modern fragrance can be both austere and lively, recognizable and unconventional.
It is a choice for those seeking not just a pleasant scent, but a perfumed image with a distinctive signature.
