Perseus: Citrus Meets the Woods
Opens with a strong burst of citruses—grapefruit leads—but right from the start, you can already pick up the dry, slightly dirty woods and earthy vetiver in the scent composition. As it develops, the balance shifts: the woods and vetiver become bolder while the citrus lingers, just not as loud. So yeah, still citrusy, but the ratio leans more woodsy the longer it’s on skin.
Not love at first sniff, but it grows on you. It has a unique character. There are moments in the mid that might remind me of some aspects of Terre d'Hermès Eau Givrée , but overall, it stands quite apart in my opinion. The vetiver is prominent—like in "Elysium Parfum Cologne (Eau de Parfum) | Roja Parfums" —but not as green, and it’s definitely paired with more woods here. So regardless of the comparisons, this still feels like its own thing.
Performance is no joke—strong projection and serious longevity (more than 12 hours on me), so definitely in the compliment-puller category because of the performance, probably due to the ambroxan (marketed as ambergris accord), and I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some clean, light oud hidden in there too—but they seem to have kept that chef’s kiss a secret.
Overall, it’s a bold and unexpected release for a freshie. Still growing on me, but there’s definitely something addictive about it.
