Selection Excellence and No 11 — a combination worth experiencing. A feminine fragrance rooted in the green and floral families. The fragrance belongs to the spicy, drinks, and wood groups. The palette of this fragrance is exceptionally rich: traces of floral and citrus can also be found — a rare combination that makes this perfume truly one of a kind. The fragrance concentration is eau de parfum.
Made in Russia, backed by a long and proud tradition. No 11 Selection Excellence 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 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
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 note pyramid of No 11 is built as an expressive line of development, where layers reveal themselves with precision and warmth. The creative approach of Selection Excellence is recognizable in details that define the fragrance identity. Every decision feels deliberate, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum keeps the right density and pace of development.
At the opening of the pyramid you meet petal-airy opening notes: Green Tea, Lime, Peony and Rose. Exactly these 4 notes set romantic softness that anchors the first impression immediately.
At the core of development you sense Coriander, Green Tea, Magnolia and Rose carrying a harmonious floral direction.
The internal accord map is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Floral, Wood and Spicy without random overlap.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Citrus, Drinks, Floral and Spicy. The framework further includes Wood, Gourmet, Whiteflower and Earthy / Mossy. At family level the composition sits in Floral and Green.
Overall No 11 reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best experienced in wear.
