The Virtue 1987 is an extrait de parfum released in 2025 by the New Zealand brand The Virtue.
This unisex fragrance is for those who appreciate expressive white-floral compositions with a pronounced musky accent and are not afraid of an intense scent profile.
The name 1987 becomes part of the release’s image, while the composition itself is perceived as a modern interpretation of classic floral aesthetics.
The Virtue is a New Zealand brand, making this fragrance particularly appealing to fans of independent perfumery and new names on the global fragrance scene.
The extrait de parfum format promises a dense, rich and long-lasting development.
The database lists The Virtue 1987 as having a very strong sillage: the fragrance is noticeable in the surrounding space and can remain on skin and clothing longer than lighter concentrations.
When applying it, it is best to start with a small amount, especially if you prefer a more delicate scent.
No precise dosage recommendations for application to skin or clothing have been provided for this release, so its intensity is best adjusted individually, taking the weather, fabric weight and occasion into account.
The fragrance is positioned as unisex and is not tied to strict gender expectations.
It may appeal to both women and men who enjoy white-floral compositions with noticeable sensual depth, a clean musky base and a distinctive presence.
The Virtue 1987 is suitable whenever you want to leave a memorable impression: at an evening gathering, a formal event or a walk in cool weather.
At the same time, its very strong sillage makes it demanding in terms of dosage in small spaces and offices.
In terms of classification, The Virtue 1987 belongs to the floral and musky families, as well as the white-floral and musky groups.
This combination defines its distinctive character: the composition is built around a luxurious floral impression and a soft, clean base.
Those who love rich floral fragrances may wish to compare 1987 with Lancôme La Nuit Trésor Diamant Blanc, and also explore Tom Ford Black Orchid Perfume Lalique Edition and Guerlain Jardins de Bagatelle.
The other fragrances on the list may develop differently, but they can help clarify preferences between white flowers, an intense base and a more classic floral profile.
No information is available about the perfumer, collection or other concentrations of The Virtue 1987. Therefore, the release’s main focus is its rich floral-musky concept, extrait format and pronounced sillage.
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
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
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 top note opens with jasmine — an expressive white flower with an elegant and distinctive scent.
At the heart, gardenia and tuberose blend together to create a rich, creamy and sensual floral accord.
The base is built around white musk, which softens the floral notes and gives them a clean, full-bodied drydown.
The entire note pyramid of The Virtue 1987 follows a white-floral and musky direction: from a bright opening to a dense heart and a long-lasting final accord.
