Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of D.S. unfolds as an expressive line of development, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The signature of D.S. & Durga is evident in the way notes appear and fade. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

At the note-group layer the composition is built around Floral, Whiteflower, Spicy and Wood. It also reaches into Green and Gourmet. At family level the composition sits in East, Floral and Wood.

As soon as the fragrance opens you sense petal-airy first notes: Frangipani, Gardenia and Saffron.

In the heart you detect Damask Rose, Lotus and Oud carrying a velvety rose-iris direction. At drydown level the line is anchored through Ambrette, Sandalwood and Vetiver, shaping a warm vetiver trail.

The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Floral, Wood, Amber and Spicy with each one in a clear role. The profile is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.

Taken together D.S. 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 judged through real development.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
