About Scent Hunters Verdigris
Scent Hunters Verdigris is a unisex fragrance released in 2025 by the Russian brand Scent Hunters.
The fragrance comes in an eau de parfum concentration and belongs to two expressive olfactory families at once: fougère and woody.
This composition is for those who appreciate fresh green facets, dry spiciness and refined depth without being tied strictly to either a masculine or feminine wardrobe.
The name Verdigris — a patina, or the noble green coating that forms on metal — perfectly conveys the fragrance’s mood.
It combines cool greenery, citrus bitterness, spicy air and a woody-balsamic base.
The result is composed, slightly graphic and contemporary: it does not seek to win you over with instant sweetness, but unfolds gradually, inviting you to listen more closely to its nuances.
Character and development
At first, Verdigris comes across as fresh and energetic, thanks to the citrus accent of bigarade, orange and lemon.
Black pepper adds a spark, while wormwood, sage, marjoram, lavender and eucalyptus create a cool aromatic contour.
As the composition develops, it becomes drier and deeper: guaiac wood, patchouli, a tobacco nuance and copaiba balsam create a soft resinous-woody effect, supported by a musky trail.
The eau de parfum has moderate sillage: it is noticeable to those around you while maintaining a comfortable distance.
On the skin, it is particularly suitable for transitional seasons, cool summer days and the shoulder seasons, when green, spicy and woody notes sound especially full-bodied.
Verdigris is easy to imagine with a city look, on a walk, in a relaxed-dress-code office or at a gathering where you want to express your individuality without being overly demonstrative.
Who is Verdigris for?
This fragrance was created for women and men who are drawn to fougère compositions with an unconventional character.
It may appeal to fans of dry herbs, bitter citrus and woody accords, as well as those looking for a versatile fragrance without sugary softness or dense oriental heaviness.
Verdigris smells intelligent, composed and slightly mysterious, making it especially well suited to those who prefer mood-driven fragrances.
The ideal dosage is two to three sprays on the skin and the same amount on clothing.
On the skin, the fragrance will develop more warmly and softly, gradually blending with your natural body scent, while on fabric it will retain its citrus-green and woody profile for longer.
For the office or warm weather, you can start with two sprays; for an outdoor walk, opt for three.
The perfumers and the brand’s aesthetic
Verdigris was created by Ekaterina Khmelevskaya, Julien Plos and Lyubov Berlyanskaya.
The authors’ collaboration is reflected in the balance between a clear opening, aromatic herbs and a rich woody-balsamic base.
For Scent Hunters, this release highlights the brand’s interest in unisex perfumery, where familiar natural materials take on a more modern and individual character.
If you would like to compare Verdigris with other fragrances, take a look at Ralph Lauren Polo Black, Gant Liquid and Les Abstraits Philosopher’s Walk.
They may share its fresh, woody or versatile mood, but Verdigris stands out through its combination of bitter citrus, wormwood, eucalyptus, tobacco-woody nuances and a pronounced green coolness.
