Bijan DNA Extrait de Parfum — Fragrance Character
Bijan DNA Extrait de Parfum is a women's fragrance from the Bijan house, released in 1993.
This composition belongs to the chypre and floral families and reveals the brand's distinctive aesthetic: luxury, expressiveness, and impeccable refinement.
Bijan is a legendary luxury house from Rodeo Drive, built around the name and bold vision of Bijan Pakzad.
DNA Extrait de Parfum clearly reflects the brand's preference for striking, richly saturated compositions that do not fade into the background but create a noticeable fragrance presence around the wearer.
Pyramid and Development
The fragrance opens with energy and freshness: a citrus spark of bergamot meets cool mint, aromatic rosemary, and green geranium.
Ylang-ylang adds soft, creamy floral tones to the opening and gradually leads the composition toward a richer heart.
The heart brings together spicy carnation, jasmine, lily of the valley, osmanthus, and tuberose.
This combination gives the bouquet impressive volume, blending white-floral expressiveness, honeyed density, and a subtle spicy shadow.
On the skin, the fragrance develops non-linearly, noticeably shifting in mood from fresh to deep.
The drydown is built around amber, benzoin, myrrh, oakmoss, sandalwood, vanilla, and vetiver.
Balsamic and woody nuances make the base warm, dense, and elegant, while the mossy-vetiver accent preserves its chypre structure.
The vanilla does not turn the fragrance gourmand; it softens the rich base and gives it a rounded quality.
Concentration and Sillage
Bijan DNA Extrait de Parfum is presented in parfum, or extrait, concentration. This format emphasizes the composition's density and rich development on the skin.
Its sillage is described as very strong, making the fragrance best suited to those who enjoy noticeable, confident, and memorable perfume accents.
Because of its high intensity, DNA Extrait de Parfum is particularly appropriate for evenings, cool weather, and formal occasions.
It can complement a tailored suit, an evening dress, or an outfit with expressive details when you want to emphasize your individuality.
For the office and small enclosed spaces, especially careful application is advisable.
Exact recommendations for application to skin and clothing are not provided in the database.
When getting to know the fragrance, it is sensible to start with a minimal amount and assess how it develops on your own skin: the rich base and very strong sillage may last for a long time.
Perfumer and Release Style
The composition was created by Claude Dir, a perfumer who successfully combined cool aromatic freshness, a rich white-floral bouquet, and a classic mossy-balsamic base.
As a result, DNA Extrait de Parfum smells composed, feminine, and dramatic at the same time, while retaining the character of old-school perfumery.
Who Will Enjoy Bijan DNA
This fragrance was created for women who appreciate expressive chypre-floral compositions with a strong character.
It will appeal to admirers of complex development, noticeable sillage, and deep base notes rather than those looking for a light, effortless everyday perfume.
As a direction for further exploration, consider Salvador Dali Dali Parfum de Toilette.
It may also interest lovers of expressive floral styles and classic perfumery, although DNA Extrait de Parfum has a denser concentration and more powerful sillage.
