Perfume information

Description of the composition

The scent of Message from Orchids is built as a cohesive olfactory arc, where layers reveal themselves without rush and without gaps. The signature of Shiseido is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. Nothing here feels random, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum sets a balanced rhythm of unfolding.

At the note-group layer the structure relies on Floral, Whiteflower and Gourmet. At family level the composition sits in Floral.

Right at the start you catch fresh floral first notes: Clove and Hyacinth. Exactly these 2 notes shape the effect of a living bouquet that is impossible to miss.

In the heart you notice Orange blossom and Tiger Orchid carrying a creamy tuberose direction. At drydown level the line is anchored through Vanilla, extending a deep cocoa-vanilla trail.

The olfactory framework rests on these accords: Floral and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure. The profile is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.

In summary Message from Orchids 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 judged through real development.

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.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)

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.
Sillage
Very conspicuous

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.

I tried this scent, and it came to me at a time when I wasn't even thinking about floral notes. It smells quite powerful, with a bright floral accent. There's something old-fashioned about it, maybe because of the carnation, but then the orchid takes over and changes everything. The main thing is that it's completely unique, unlike anything else. It doesn't evoke any analogues, which is a pleasant surprise ))
