Compass Perfume Oil by Astrid Perfume
Astrid Perfume Compass is a women's fragrance from the American brand Astrid Perfume, released in 2019.
The composition is presented as a perfume oil and belongs to the citrus and woody fragrance families.
This is a distinctive, expressive perfume with a very strong sillage, suited to those who enjoy a rich, full-bodied scent and do not want to go unnoticed.
The name Compass sets a special mood for the composition: the fragrance seems to invite you on a short olfactory journey where fresh citrus notes meet juicy fruits, spices, soft woods and a transparent tea accord.
It comes across as cohesive and multifaceted, as the individual notes are not arranged in a rigid linear pyramid but intertwine with one another.
The Character and Development of the Fragrance
At the heart of Compass Perfume Oil is a bright duo of bergamot and orange, complemented by juicy nuances of pear and quince.
The citrus freshness does not seem overly simple here: clove and nutmeg support it, adding a warm spicy facet and a touch of piquancy to the composition.
As it develops, the fruity-spicy accord becomes softer and more composed. White tea brings a sense of cleanliness and airiness, while sandalwood gradually forms a calm woody base.
Thanks to this combination, the fragrance retains its freshness while sounding deeper and richer than classic light citrus compositions.
Its very strong sillage makes this perfume especially noticeable in the air.
Compass may be well suited to evenings, cool weather, meetings and occasions when you want to emphasize your individuality with an expressive scent trail.
In warm weather, it should be used with particular care, as the oil formula and high intensity may develop even more powerfully.
The Perfumer, Concentration and Place in the Collection
The composition was created by Astrid Favreau-Hild Weinstock, perfumer and owner of Astrid Perfume.
Her work brings together a fresh citrus impulse, fruity juiciness, spicy warmth and creamy woods in Compass, making the fragrance feel lively, comforting and distinctive at the same time.
Compass is a perfume oil.
No precise recommendations for the number of applications to the skin or clothing are available, so it is best to adjust the intensity individually, starting with a small amount and observing how the composition behaves specifically on your skin.
Information about other concentrations of this fragrance is also unavailable.
As a direction for further exploring a similar scent profile, you might consider Memo Corfu.
It can help continue the exploration of bright, expressive compositions if Compass's distinctive character and rich development are what appeal to you most.
