The world first encountered Duende by Fantôme in 2018. Available as oil-based perfume.
Made in the United States, backed by a long and proud tradition. Duende Fantôme unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
One of those fragrances you never forget, even years later. The official website of Fantôme — http://www.khadlaj-perfumes.com.
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 oil-based perfume composition with a soft opening, high durability, and an intimate 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 Duende is shaped as a living composition, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Fantôme is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Oil-based perfume sets a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
From the group perspective the composition is built around Balsamic, Wood, Floral and Earthy / Mossy.
In a unified mixed pyramid the opening appears as one connected movement with a deep balsamic mood: Benzoin, Cedar, Fir, Labdanum, Lilac, Myrrh and Oak moss. Here 7 notes act as one voice, building noble smoky warmth that reads as cohesive from the start.
The deeper layers are felt as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which gives the structure continuity.
The accord profile is shaped by these accords: Balsamic, Gourmet, Floral and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
Taken together Duende holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best judged in wear.
