1943: the world took its first breath of Grigri Weil. A feminine fragrance from the floral family. Released in perfume extract.
Brand country — France: a place that truly knows its way around a great scent. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
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 scent of Grigri is shaped as a layered story, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The style of Weil is evident from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Perfume extract emphasizes a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Fairy, Citrus, Floral and Whiteflower. The palette also extends to Animals, Earthy / Mossy, Wood and Balsamic. At family level the scent maps to Floral.
In the first seconds you catch airy abstract top notes: Aldehydes, Bergamot and Clove. These 3 notes form creative artistic accent that anchors the first impression immediately.
In the heart you meet Iris, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley, Orange blossom, Rose and Violet carrying a creamy tuberose direction. In the final layer the composition is fixed through Civet, Grey Ambergris, Oak moss, Patchouli, Sandalwood and Styrax, shaping a earthy woody-resinous trail.
The gender direction is feminine, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
In summary Grigri 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 understood on skin.
