Volatility of notes: why the fragrance changes on the skin
You spritzed your favorite perfume in the morning, but by evening your skin smells like a different ...
Prescriptives launched Potion in 2000 — and it was a brilliant move. A feminine fragrance rooted in the floral and water families. It was created by perfumer Karine Chevallier.
Produced in the United States, where perfumery has long been elevated to an art form. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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
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 olfactory structure of Potion unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The style of Prescriptives comes through in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail.
The internal accord map is driven by these accords: Citrus, Gourmet, Floral and Fruit forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Wood, Powdery and Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
In the top tier you sense invigorating sunny top notes: Kumquat and Orange blossom.
In the central layer you notice Iris and Violet holding a harmonious floral direction.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Whiteflower, Floral and Balsamic. The framework further includes Gourmet, Wood and Aquatic. Within olfactory families the scent maps to Floral and Water.
Overall Potion sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best understood on skin.
