The house of Close 2 presents Creation Nr.2.
The sillage is moderate — present, but never overpowering. This fragrance doesn't rush to leave — you can count on high longevity. Brand country — the Netherlands. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
If fragrances could speak, this one would say: 'You made the right choice.' The official website of Close 2 — http://www.parfums-pergolese.com.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
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 olfactory structure of Creation Nr.2 unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The style of Close 2 is clear in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through.
The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Musc, Amber and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character. In longevity terms High suggests confident staying power. In trail behavior Middle shows the style of diffusion around the wearer.
From the first breath you sense warm amber opening note: Ambergris. This single 1 note sets golden warm radiance that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
In the heart you notice musk carrying a soft-powdery direction. At drydown level the composition is fixed through Vanilla, reinforcing a deep cocoa-vanilla trail.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Ambery, Musk and Gourmet.
Overall Creation Nr.2 sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best understood in wear.
