Shalimar: the history of the first amber fragrance

V. Van Gogh joined the La Comedie des Parfums portfolio in 2011. By character, a unisex fragrance drawing from the green and floral families. Perfumer Gabriel Abraham poured every ounce of mastery into this one.
France is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. V. Van Gogh La Comedie des Parfums 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 V. Van Gogh is built as an expressive line of development, where accents shift without rush and without gaps. The style of La Comedie des Parfums is recognizable in the way notes appear and fade. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through.
In the first seconds you detect invigorating sunny opening notes: Bergamot, Black currant leaf, Lemon and Orange. Exactly these 4 notes build a sensation of cool purity that is impossible to miss.
In the central layer you meet Jasmine and Lily of the Valley carrying a silky white floral direction.
The accord architecture is built around these accords: Citrus, Floral, Musc and Wood with each one in a clear role. Secondary accord layers such as Amber enrich the profile without taking over.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Citrus, Green, Whiteflower and Ambery. It also reaches into Wood, Musk, Floral and Earthy / Mossy. From a family perspective the scent maps to Floral and Green.
In summary V. Van Gogh holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best understood through real development.
