Fragrance information:
Feuilles DSH Perfumes
Feuilles is a unisex eau de parfum by DSH Perfumes, an American niche fragrance house that has been developing its own vision of the art of perfumery since 2000.
The composition belongs to the chypre and floral families, combining fresh greenery, cool citrus nuances, and a distinctive floral heart.
This fragrance is ideal for those who enjoy more than just light freshness and prefer full-bodied green compositions with character.
Feuilles smells composed, natural, and quite bold. Its character evokes a walk among damp foliage, with the air filled with the scents of grasses, flowers, and woody earth.
Notes and Development
The opening notes of Feuilles greet you with a bright combination of basil, grapefruit, lavender, and petitgrain.
The opening is simultaneously citrusy, herbaceous, and slightly bitter, immediately revealing the fragrance's green, energetic character.
In the heart, geranium, lily, lily of the valley, and rose unfold.
The floral accord does not become overly sweet; cool botanical nuances and a light, dewy transparency keep it balanced.
In the base, fern, galbanum, patchouli, and rose emerge, creating a deep, earthy-green finish with a chypre mood.
Sillage and Wearability
Feuilles has very strong sillage, so it makes a noticeable impression in the air and is well suited to those who appreciate a distinctive presence.
It is best applied sparingly, especially when first getting to know the composition. Exact dosage recommendations for skin and clothing are not provided, but its rich concentration calls for a measured approach.
The unisex positioning feels entirely natural here.
On some skin, the green and herbal notes may come across as more austere; on others, they may feel more floral and soft. For this reason, Feuilles is best tested on skin and given time to move from its fresh opening to a denser patchouli-chypre base.
The Perfumer and Similar Fragrances
The perfumer behind the composition is Dawn Spencer Hurwitz.
Her style can be felt in the effort to create a cohesive natural portrait, where freshness is inseparable from depth and flowers unfold against a backdrop of greenery, herbs, and woody nuances.
If you would like to explore fragrances with a similar mood, consider Cacharel Anais Anais, Jean Patou 1000, and The Body Shop White Musk.
They share an interest in floral and musky-green nuances, but Feuilles stands out with its more pronounced herbal bitterness, chypre structure, and powerful sillage.
