2011: the world took its first breath of Oriental Mint Phaedon. A unisex fragrance from the fern family. Conceived and brought to life by perfumer Pierre Guillaume. Part of the Eaux de Toilette collection, available as eau de toilette.
The home of this fragrance is France. Oriental Mint Phaedon 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 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 Oriental Mint evolves as a cohesive olfactory arc, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Phaedon is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de toilette keeps the depth and body this composition needs.
The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
Without strict stage separation the opening appears as one connected movement with a deep balsamic mood: Frankincense, Marine accord, Mint, Resins and Tobacco. In this case 5 notes work as one coherent layer, building enveloping resinous depth that feels seamless.
The middle and base stages are read as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Balsamic, Aquatic, Aromatic and Wood. Within olfactory families the composition sits in Fern.
In summary Oriental Mint holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the middle layer carries the identity, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best judged on skin.
