Expect a noticeable sillage — enough to be remembered, not enough to overwhelm. It settles in and stays — the longevity is genuinely high. Behind this fragrance stands France and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
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 composition of Eau Simple de Concombre is built as a layered story, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The style of Phaedon 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. Eau de toilette emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
When the structure is mixed the opening appears as one connected movement with a architectural woody mood: Cedar, Cucumber, Freesia, Leather accord, Mint, Musk and Woody Accord. In this case 7 notes work as one voice, forming a sense of noble depth that keeps the opening compact and balanced.
The heart and base are perceived as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which gives the structure continuity.
The profile is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived. In longevity terms High points to a sustained drydown presence.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Wood, Green, Floral and Leather. The palette also extends to Aromatic, Musk and Earthy / Mossy.
Overall Eau Simple de Concombre holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the fragrances best understood in wear.
