The house of PG Parfums presents Doreen. A feminine fragrance rooted in the floral family. The fragrance is presented as eau de parfum.
Made in France. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
If fragrances could speak, this one would say: 'You made the right choice.' The official website of PG Parfums — https://oldfactorysoap.com.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent is clearly present near you, but it does not fill the entire space
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
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 Doreen is shaped as a layered story, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The style of PG Parfums comes through in the way notes appear and fade. Every decision feels deliberate, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum sets the right density and pace of development.
The accord profile rests on these accords: Balsamic, Floral, Fruit and Wood without random overlap. Background accords such as Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
When the structure is mixed the notes arrive together with a peppery-spicy mood: Anise, Apricot, Cedar, Cinnamon, Clove, Cumin and Jasmine.
The deeper layers are perceived as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Spicy, Fruit, Wood and Floral. The framework further includes Whiteflower, Balsamic and Gourmet. Within olfactory families the composition sits in Floral.
Taken together Doreen holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best experienced in wear.
