Dana launched Insignia in 1986 — and it was a brilliant move. By character, a masculine fragrance drawing from the spicy and fern families. Insignia is part of the Insignia collection. The fragrance is presented as eau de cologne.
Produced in the United States, and you can feel it in every note. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 fresh and light fragrance with a concentration of fragrant substances up to 5% according to French standards, giving a feeling of purity and coolness
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 note pyramid of Insignia is built as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The signature of Dana is clear in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de Cologne emphasizes the depth and body this composition needs.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Aromatic, Citrus, Spicy and Whiteflower. It also reaches into Wood, Earthy / Mossy and Musk. From a family perspective the scent maps to Fern and Spicy.
As soon as the fragrance opens you detect spicy-green opening notes: Basil, Bergamot, Lemon and Rosemary.
In the heart you notice Coriander, Jasmine, Petitgrain and Pine holding a spicy-aromatic direction.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral without random overlap. Additional accords such as Musc, Wood and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The profile is masculine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
Overall Insignia sounds complete from start to finish — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best experienced on skin.
