Perfume information

The composition of No. 48 is built as an expressive line of development, where accents shift with precision and warmth. The style of Selection Excellence is evident from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

From the first breath you meet fresh green top notes: Basil, Cucumber, Lavender and Mandarin. Exactly these 4 notes form pure greenery effect that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.

In the middle phase you sense Basil, Black Pepper, Cardamom and Osmanthus holding a warm-spicy direction.

The accord architecture is driven by these accords: Aromatic, Aquatic, Citrus and Gourmet forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Floral, Wood, Amber and Spicy expand the olfactory volume in the background.

At the note-group layer the structure relies on Aromatic, Green, Citrus and Spicy. The framework further includes Floral, Ambery, Sweet and Wood.

In summary No. 48 reads as a cohesive composition — the start forms character, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood on skin.

Persistence

The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage

Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth

The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.

Gender

This scale depicts gender focus and demonstrates how the brand positions the fragrance - as masculine, feminine or universal.

On the skin

The optimum amount of atomisation on the skin is the balance at which the fragrance reveals itself in its entirety and sounds its best.

Where is the best place to apply the fragrance?

The best places to apply a fragrance are the areas where it will reveal itself most fully and create the most vivid impression.

On clothing

Associations

Perfume associations are the emotions and images that pop into the imagination when you perceive its unique notes and accents

Effect

Fragrances can attract attention and evoke positive emotions, others can leave neutral, and others can cause negative associations and repel people.

Intensity

The intensity of a fragrance is like its ‘volume’, the degree of intensity and strength with which it is felt around you or on the surface.

Packaging quality

Perfume bottle packaging quality is about protection and aesthetic appeal, including strength, reliability, design and materials. High quality ensures the safety and security of the product, a good first impression and attractiveness
