Optimiste Farfalla arrived in 2020 — and it was immediately clear this one was here to stay. A unisex fragrance from the spicy and fern families. Offered in eau de parfum concentration.
The birthplace of this fragrance — Switzerland, a place with a refined nose. Optimiste Farfalla 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 fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate 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 scent of Optimiste is built as a layered story, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Farfalla is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum sets the right density and pace of development.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Spicy, Citrus, Aromatic and Floral. The palette also extends to Wood. From a family perspective the composition sits in Fern and Spicy.
In a unified mixed pyramid the notes arrive together with a cool lavender mood: Ginger, Lemon, Melissa, Mint, Neroli and Patchouli. Here 6 notes sound as one voice, forming olfactory composure that feels seamless.
The inner phases are felt as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which gives the structure continuity.
The olfactory framework is driven by these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Floral and Powdery with each one in a clear role. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
Taken together Optimiste holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best judged on skin.
