Since 2022, Aer Ortir Apothecari has never stopped surprising. A unisex fragrance from the wood, floral, and aromatic families. It was created by perfumer Lisa Howarth. Offered in eau de parfum concentration.
Country of origin — the United Kingdom, and that already says something about the quality. Aer Ortir Apothecari 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 olfactory structure of Aer is built as a cohesive olfactory arc, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Ortir Apothecari is clear in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
From the group perspective the profile is anchored in Green, Aromatic, Citrus and Floral. The palette also extends to Wood and Whiteflower. From a family perspective the composition sits in Aromatic, Floral and Wood.
From the first breath you sense crisp leafy top notes: Lavender and Peppermint.
In the central layer you detect Orange and Rose holding a refreshing green direction. In the final layer the structure settles through Atlas Cedar and Forest Accord, shaping a warm vetiver trail.
The internal accord map is built around these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Floral and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. The profile is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
Taken together Aer holds a coherent structure — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best understood in wear.
