Loaded Strellson, that first saw the light of day in 2012, is classified as a masculine fragrance, rooted in the spicy and fern families. The fragrance was crafted by perfumer Peter Schmidt. Released in eau de toilette.
Expect a very delicate sillage: a quiet, intimate presence. Expect high longevity: it stays close to the skin for hours. The birthplace of this fragrance — Switzerland, a place with a refined nose. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
The scent exists only for you—no one around you will notice it
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
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 scent of Loaded is shaped as a layered story, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Strellson is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette emphasizes the right density and pace of development.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Citrus, Spicy, Balsamic and Green. It also reaches into Ambery, Gourmet, Wood and Musk. At family level the composition sits in Fern and Spicy.
In the top tier you sense sparkling citrus opening notes: Bergamot, Black Pepper, Elemi and Green Chord.
At the core of development you meet Ginger, Lavender and Myrrh keeping a cinnamon-nutmeg direction. In what remains on skin the line is anchored through Ambergris, Vanilla, Vetiver and musk, reinforcing a deep amber trail.
The profile is masculine, which clarifies the composition character. In longevity terms High points to a sustained drydown presence. In diffusion Very weak shows the style of diffusion around the wearer.
In summary Loaded holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best experienced on skin.
