2018: the world took its first breath of Chypré X The Dua Brand. A unisex fragrance from the chypre family. Mahsam Raza — the creative mind behind this fragrance. A fragrance from the Crystal collection, in perfume extract.
Country of origin — the United States, and that already says something about the quality. Chypré X The Dua Brand unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
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
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive 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 Chypré X is built as an expressive line of development, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The style of The Dua Brand is evident in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract supports the right density and pace of development.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Fairy, Ambery, Balsamic and Green. It also reaches into Citrus, Wood, Animals and Spicy.
Without strict stage separation the fragrance opens as a single chord with a inspiring floral mood: Aldehydes, Ambergris, Benzoin, Black Currant Buds, Calabrian bergamot, Cedar and Civet.
The inner phases are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
The accord profile is shaped by these accords: Animalistic, Balsamic, Citrus and Gourmet forming a compact and readable structure. Secondary accord layers such as Floral, Fruit, Musc and Wood expand the olfactory volume in the background.
In summary Chypré X holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best experienced on skin.
