Garuda Jul et Mad, launched in 2015, is officially considered a unisex fragrance, drawing from the east and wood families. The author of this composition is Luca Maffei, and that explains a lot. The fragrance belongs to the spicy, ambery, and wood groups. The palette of this fragrance is exceptionally rich: traces of gourmet and citrus can also be found — a rare combination that makes this perfume truly one of a kind. Garuda — a proud member of the White collection. Released in perfume extract.
Country of origin — France: no wonder the fragrance turned out this refined. 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
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive 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 Garuda unfolds as a cohesive olfactory arc, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The creative approach of Jul et Mad is recognizable in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Perfume extract sets the right density and pace of development.
The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Citrus, Musc, Wood and Amber with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Spicy and Alcoholic enrich the profile without taking over. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
At the opening of the pyramid you meet radiant lemon-bergamot top notes: Bergamot, Caraway, Orange and Pink pepper.
At the core of development you notice Cambodian Oud, Rum and Saffron carrying a spicy-woody direction.
At the note-group layer the profile is anchored in Ambery, Citrus, Gourmet and Spicy. The framework further includes Wood, Drinks and Musk.
In summary Garuda holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best experienced through real development.
