Key fragrance characteristics

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The scent of Velvet Orchid Solid Perfume is shaped as a layered story, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The style of Tom Ford is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Solid perfume emphasizes the depth and body this composition needs.

As soon as the fragrance opens you sense sparkling citrus opening notes: Bergamot, Honey, Mandarin and Rum.

At the core of development you meet Heliotrope, Hyacinth, Jasmine, Magnolia, Narcissus and Orange blossom keeping a opulent floral direction.

The accord profile is shaped by these accords: Balsamic, Citrus, Gourmet and Floral with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Wood, Leather, Spicy and Alcoholic expand the olfactory volume in the background.

At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Citrus, Sweet, Drinks and Floral. The palette also extends to Whiteflower, Balsamic, Wood and Leather.

Taken together Velvet Orchid Solid Perfume holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best judged 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.
Persistence
Very high (more than 12 hours)
5
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
5
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.

This time, the orchid is just incredibly feminine. In a bouquet of dark shades, you can feel honeyed sweetness and vanilla, and patchouli adds depth. It smells powerful and full of character! )
