Blackcurrant & Praline Dermacol — a 2019 fragrance that needs no introduction. This is a feminine fragrance rooted in the sweet, fruit, and floral families. In eau de parfum — and that's all it takes to fall in love.
Country of origin — Czechia: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. 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 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 Blackcurrant & Praline is shaped as a living composition, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Dermacol is clear in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Floral, Citrus, Whiteflower and Wood. The palette also extends to Sweet, Gourmet and Fruit. From a family perspective the scent maps to Floral, Fruit and Sweet.
In the first seconds you sense delicate floral opening notes: Black Currant Flower and Grapefruit. Exactly these 2 notes shape romantic softness that anchors the first impression immediately.
In the middle phase you detect Jasmine and Rose holding a sensual jasmine direction. In the final layer the composition is fixed through Noble Woods, Praline and Vanilla, extending a deep woody trail.
The gender direction is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
In summary Blackcurrant & Praline holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best experienced through real development.
