Royal Platinum Charriol — a 2011 fragrance that needs no introduction. This is a masculine fragrance rooted in the east and wood families. The nose behind this fragrance — Guillaume Flavigny. From the Royal collection; released as eau de parfum.
It's quite fleeting: longevity is very low, so feel free to reapply generously. Behind this fragrance stands Switzerland and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance has very low longevity and lasts only about 1 hour on the skin, leaving only a light, barely perceptible trail
The scent exists only for you—no one around you will notice it
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 scent of Royal Platinum evolves as a continuous scent journey, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Charriol comes through in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum emphasizes the right density and pace of development.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Spicy, Balsamic, Leather and Floral. The framework further includes Ambery, Wood and Gourmet. Within olfactory families the composition sits in East and Wood.
Right at the start you sense piquant warm first notes: Ginger, Hot pepper and Saffron.
In the central layer you notice Frankincense, Leather accord and Rose carrying a deep balsamic direction.
The accord architecture rests on these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Wood, Amber, Leather and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The profile is masculine, which clarifies the composition character.
In summary Royal Platinum holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood on skin.
