The year 2016 gave us Arctica Beary. A unisex fragrance from the wood, floral, and aromatic families. Created as part of the Memento I collection.
Oman is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. Arctica Beary unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The scent of Arctica is built as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Beary is recognizable in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction.
In the first seconds you sense invigorating sunny top notes: Bergamot, Lemon, Orange and Sage. Exactly these 4 notes shape a burst of citrus freshness that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
When the opening settles you notice Jasmine and Lily of the Valley carrying a sensual jasmine direction.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Floral and Musc with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Wood enrich the profile without taking over. The gender direction is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Citrus, Aromatic, Whiteflower and Wood. The palette also extends to Musk and Floral. From a family perspective the scent maps to Aromatic, Floral and Wood.
In summary Arctica reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best experienced in wear.
