Sushumna — an Oriental composition by TSVGA Parfums
Sushumna Parfums by TSVGA Parfums is a niche unisex fragrance from 2024 in Parfum (Extrait) concentration.
The composition belongs to the Oriental and floral families, combining rich amber-woody depth with spicy, balsamic and floral nuances.
This is an expressive release for those who appreciate complex fragrances with a distinct character and powerful presence.
Sushumna was created by perfumer James Barry.
His work reflects the spirit of the young American niche scene: founded in California in 2021, TSVGA Parfums focuses on bold, emotional and memorable compositions.
Sushumna continues this direction, offering not a neutral everyday fragrance but a richly textured olfactory statement.
Character and Scent Profile
The fragrance makes its impression through a contrast between freshness and density.
Citrusy accents of yuzu and bergamot add a bright lift to the composition, while saffron, incense, labdanum and amber nuances quickly lead the scent into a warmer, more resinous territory.
The floral facet unfolds in a multifaceted way, bringing together blue lotus, boronia, osmanthus and rosy nuances, including Damask rose.
As it develops, Sushumna becomes darker and more expansive.
A leather accord, black musk, oud, patchouli, sandalwood and spikenard create an expressive woody-leathery base, while tobacco, vanilla, beeswax and grey amber soften it with honeyed, sweetish and sensual nuances.
Thanks to this combination, the fragrance does not develop linearly: fresh, floral, resinous and warm nuances follow one another while preserving an overall Oriental character.
Longevity and Sillage
Sushumna is a fragrance with very strong sillage.
Its extrait concentration and rich base make it noticeable in the air, so the composition is especially suitable for cool weather, evenings and occasions when you want to emphasize your individuality.
The recommended dosage on skin and clothing has not been specified for this release. Given the fragrance's character, it is sensible to start with a small number of sprays and assess its development gradually.
On warm skin, the amber-musky and woody accords may smell especially intense, while on fabric the sillage may last longer.
Sushumna will appeal to women and men who prefer rich Oriental compositions with a floral facet.
Who Will Enjoy Sushumna
This perfume is worth considering for fans of expressive, deep and unconventional fragrances.
It may appeal to those looking for an alternative to transparent citrus and light floral compositions, and who want to add oud, leather, incense, tobacco and amber nuances to their fragrance wardrobe.
For a look at a fragrance with a similar mood, consider Memo Iberian Leather. However, Sushumna stands out through its more intricate interplay of flowers, resins, musk and gourmand nuances.
Other concentrations of Sushumna are not specified in the available data.
Therefore, the main point of reference when choosing it remains the character of the Extrait de Parfum itself: dense, long-lasting, noticeable and designed to unfold fully on the skin.
This is a fragrance for a personal collection and a thoughtful introduction, when perfume becomes not a backdrop but part of the overall image.
