The year 2020 gave us Skins x Vilhelm Vilhelm Parfumerie. By character, a unisex fragrance drawing from the fern, leather, and wood families. Jan Vilhelm Ahlgren — the creative mind behind this fragrance. An eau de parfum — light-footed, but utterly unforgettable.
Expect a extremely noticeable sillage: present enough to be remembered. It settles in and stays — the longevity is genuinely high. Produced in the United States, and you can feel it in every note. 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 will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail

In the central layer you detect Lavender, Leather accord and Violet keeping a aromatic green direction.
The olfactory framework rests on these accords: Aromatic, Citrus, Floral and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Secondary accord layers such as Leather expand the olfactory volume in the background. The gender direction is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.

At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Fruit, Green and Leather. It also reaches into Floral and Wood.
