Epilogue. Under the Litchi Tree — character and style
Epilogue.
Under the Litchi Tree is a unisex eau de parfum by Epilogue. The fragrance combines juicy fruitiness with a distinctive woody base, making it equally suitable for both feminine and masculine styles.
The name refers to lychee, the composition’s main emotional accent.
However, this is not simply a sweet fruity fragrance: the citrus opening quickly meets dry woody notes, soft rose, vetiver and deep mossy nuances.
Olfactive profile
In character, Under the Litchi Tree belongs to the fruity and woody fragrance families.
Its composition also reveals citrusy, floral, sweet, and earthy-leafy-mossy facets, making the fragrance feel layered and full-bodied.
The profile is built on contrast: sparkling freshness gives way to a creamy-sweet heart, which then becomes darker and calmer.
Woody accords lend the fragrance composure, while the fruity theme preserves its liveliness and contemporary lightness.
Development on the skin and sillage
The composition opens brightly and juicily: lemon and mandarin create a fresh citrus impulse, while lychee adds transparent fruity sweetness with an exotic mood.
As it develops, the fragrance becomes warmer and softer.
Cedar, toffee, rose and vetiver form an expressive heart in which the sweet accent is balanced by the dryness of wood and a light green-earthy nuance.
The base leaves guaiac wood, moss and sandalwood — a rich, smooth and noticeable combination.
The sillage is described as very strong, so the fragrance can linger in the air and remain perceptible to those around you even some time after application.
Who it is for and when to wear it
Under the Litchi Tree will appeal to those who enjoy noticeable unisex compositions with a fruity opening and a woody finish.
It is a choice for fragrance lovers who appreciate character: it does not blend into the overall look but becomes its distinctive detail.
The composition may sound especially intriguing in cool weather, when the woody and mossy facets unfold more deeply, while the fruity-citrusy opening adds dynamism.
Thanks to its strong sillage, the fragrance is best applied sparingly in the office and enclosed spaces, leaving a more generous application for evenings and open-air settings.
Perfume creators and similar fragrances
The fragrance was created by Isaac Fung and Joshua Fung. Their composition is built not around a single note, but around a smooth transition from juicy freshness to sweet woody depth.
If you would like to explore a similar mood, consider Clive Christian X Neroli, as well as The Spirit of Dubai Bahar and The Spirit of Dubai Turath.
These fragrances may appeal to lovers of pronounced sillage, refined woody accords and an expressive presentation.
Other concentrations of Under the Litchi Tree are not listed in the database.
There are also no precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing, so when trying it for the first time, it is best to start with one or two sprays and assess the intensity of the sillage on your own skin.
