The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
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 composition of Garden of Thorns is built as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of The Dua Brand comes through in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Perfume extract supports the depth and body this composition needs.
Without strict stage separation the fragrance opens as a single chord with a airy lemon mood: Calabrian bergamot, Lemongrass and Mate. In this format 3 notes act as one integrated frame, building a burst of citrus freshness that feels seamless.
The deeper layers are perceived as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which gives the structure continuity.
The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
From the group perspective the structure relies on Citrus, Green and Earthy / Mossy. Within olfactory families the fragrance belongs to Citrus and Green.
Overall Garden of Thorns reads as a cohesive composition — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. These are the fragrances best judged through real development.
