Warm, rich, exotic, intense, spicy dramatic notes, often based on amber, vanilla, incense with florid floral top notes. Fresh, floral, sometimes herbal/mossy scents dominated by leafy, grassy, crisp notes. Lemon, bergamot, neroli, petitgrain, tangerine, grapefruit, cedar, syringe and lime. Reviving and refreshing. Rich, dark, smoky, deep, spicy notes usually intensified or contrasted with green, floral or animalic oils. Bouquets of flowers - tuberose, roses, lily, jasmine, lilac, muguet, ylang-ylang, violets, orange blossom etc. Fresh, sweet, feminine. Mostly florals and greens enlivened with notes of soft sweet fruits - peach, apricot, plum, pineapple, prune, and raspberry. Literally "from Cyprus". Longlasting, warm, mossy, soft dark scents. Very sophisticated, urban, couture and elegant. Usually chypres feature sharp, green top notes which soften to bases of oakmoss, amber, leather, vetiver, patchouli and sandalwood. Full-bodied, green, dark, aromatic notes of cedar, sandal, juniper, birchwood, rosewood, ebony, patchouli, oak-moss, lavender, clary sage. Entirely synthetic and quirky modern sub-group which uses a variety of chemicals (e.g. calene) to  introduce a suggestion of the sea, lakes, rivers and streams to the top and middle notes of a perfume. As innovative and ingenious as the introduction of aldehydes in the early 1920's.

Terre de Sarment   O sarments! O parfums! O baisers infinis! (Baudelaire)

The scent of the warm wet earth: a beautiful arrangement of the smells of a spring morning in Champagne. Top notes of grapefruit, neroli and cumin reveal incense, orange flower, myrrh and muscat. The warm base is a mix of benzoin absolute, vanilla, & tobacco. Freshness and sensuality, innocence and pleasure.
