Since 1922, Alcée Gueldy has never stopped surprising. This is a feminine fragrance rooted in the floral family.
Brand country — France, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 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 note pyramid of Alcée unfolds as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The style of Gueldy comes through in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through.
When the structure is mixed the fragrance opens as a single chord with a voluminous floral mood: Floral Notes. In this format 1 note works as one voice, forming an elegant floral wave that feels seamless.
The inner phases are felt as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
The accord profile is built around these accords: Floral without random overlap. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which clarifies the composition character.
At the note-group layer the composition is built around Floral and Whiteflower. From a family perspective the scent maps to Floral.
Taken together Alcée sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best experienced through real development.
