The History and Character of the Fragrance
Astrid Perfume Lilac Study #6 is a 2024 unisex fragrance in an oil perfume format. The release is part of the A Study of Lilac collection, dedicated to the multifaceted character of lilac.
The composition combines floral expressiveness with green freshness, fruity tartness and a spicy accent.
The fragrance was created by the American brand Astrid Perfume, which produces feminine and unisex compositions in an oil perfume concentration.
The brand's perfumery DNA reflects a love of rich natural imagery and a desire to reveal familiar notes from an unexpected perspective.
Lilac Study #6 continues this approach, transforming lilac from a light spring motif into a more complex and expressive perfumery image.
The Pyramid and Development
At the heart of the composition is lilac, surrounded by rose, rhubarb, cranberry and cassia. This combination creates a contrast between soft florality, tart greenery and cool, juicy berry notes.
On the skin, the fragrance is not perceived as a simple lilac soliflore: its character shifts from a fresh, slightly sharp impression to a deeper, richer floral accord.
Rhubarb and cranberry add an energetic tartness to the composition, while cassia emphasizes its spicy texture.
Rose softens the transitions and makes the floral heart rounder, while lilac remains the main protagonist.
The result is an expressive chypre-floral fragrance with green and fruity nuances that is especially captivating to observe as it develops.
Positioning and Wearability
Lilac Study #6 is suitable for women and men who prefer noticeable, distinctive compositions with a strong sillage.
This is not an intimate fragrance meant only for oneself, but a confident perfumery accent capable of announcing its wearer's presence.
Its very strong sillage makes it particularly suitable for walks, parties, creative events and cool weather.
The oily texture usually unfolds close to the skin during the first few minutes, gradually forming a rich and long-lasting cloud.
No precise recommendations for the number of applications on skin or clothing are provided for this release, so it is best to begin with a small amount and assess the intensity on your own skin.
No additional concentrations of Lilac Study #6 are listed in the database.
The Perfumer and Its Place in the Collection
The composition was created by Astrid Favro-Hild Weinstock, the perfumer and founder of the brand.
Her interpretation of lilac is built on nuances and contrasts: transparent florality is set against tart, green, berry and spicy tones.
This gives the fragrance a modern feel while preserving classic perfumery depth.
In terms of mood, Lilac Study #6 may appeal to fans of expressive chypre and floral compositions.
For further exploration, Sisley Eau du Soir, as well as Dsquared² Potion For Women and Guerlain Mitsouko Extrait, may be worth trying.
These are not exact equivalents, but fragrances for those who appreciate rich floral accords, spicy nuances and a noticeable presence on the skin.
