Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin
You spritzed your favorite perfume in the morning, but by evening your skin smells like a different ...
The world first encountered Our Own Backyard | 207 by Abstraction in 2022. A unisex fragrance rooted in the green, fern, and musk families. This fragrance is the personal signature of perfumer Alexandra Carlin. Concentration — eau de parfum: exactly what it needs to be.
The birthplace of this fragrance — France, a place with a refined nose. Our Own Backyard | 207 Abstraction — the choice of those who appreciate depth and character in every detail.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of Our Own Backyard | 207 is built as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Abstraction comes through in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum keeps the depth and body this composition needs.
In the first seconds you meet sweet-fresh fruity top notes: Artichoke, Cardamom and Warm Skin Accord. These 3 notes build sweet sensation of summer nectar that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
In the middle phase you detect Cashmeran, Clary Sage and Lavender holding a soft-powdery direction.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Gourmet, Musc and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Amber and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Fruit, Spicy, Fairy and Musk. The palette also extends to Aromatic, Green, Ambery and Earthy / Mossy.
Taken together Our Own Backyard | 207 sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best understood in wear.
