Meet Lumos — a mysterious and fresh unisex fragrance from the young Russian niche brand Wild Drops Parfums, released in 2024.
The perfume is part of the Hogwarts collection, inspired by the magical world. It was created by perfumer Anna Nikishina, known for her bright and unexpected compositions.
Lumos belongs to the spicy, green, and floral families, combining the freshness of citrus, the spiciness of spices, and the tenderness of white flowers.
The fragrance unfolds lightly and airily, leaving a soft trail.
Thanks to its extract concentration and low sillage, Lumos is ideal for spot application on skin — one or two touches are enough to enjoy its scent up close.
On clothing, it is recommended to spray "in a cloud" to preserve the intimacy of the fragrance. It is a perfect choice for everyday wear, work, or cozy evenings.
If you like Lumos, check out Paris Hilton Passport St. Moritz — it also combines fresh and sweet notes.
And for lovers of citrus freshness, Edgardio Chilini Lemon Sorbet is a great choice.
The fragrance has low persistence and lasts on the skin for about 2–3 hours, gradually fading and smoothly revealing its main notes
A subtle trail—just a hint of fragrance
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The Lumos composition opens with a sparkling duo of ginger and cardamom, complemented by juicy lemon and green grass.
In the heart, lily and lily of the valley blossom, framed by balsamic elemi and cool mountain air.
The base consists of soft floral and woody accords, juicy pear, and sensual musk.
