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 olfactory structure of Arenas unfolds as a layered story, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The signature of Parfums Codibel comes through in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Every decision feels deliberate, and the structure feels complete all the way through.
Without strict stage separation the opening appears as one connected movement with a soft-dry woody mood: Abelmoschus, Bergamot, Cedar, Patchouli, Rhubarb, Vanilla and musk. Here 7 notes work as one voice, forming clear woody framework that feels seamless.
The inner phases are felt as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which preserves the scent identity through drydown.
The accord architecture rests on these accords: Citrus, Musc, Wood and Spicy without random overlap.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Floral, Citrus, Wood and Green. It also reaches into Gourmet, Musk, Aromatic and Earthy / Mossy. Within olfactory families the scent maps to Aromatic and Green.
In summary Arenas holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. This is the type of composition best judged in wear.
