Chypre

Chypre fragrances, one of the oldest fragrance families, trace their origins to the island of Cyprus, a historical hub of exotic perfumery. Named by Francois Coty in 1917, chypre scents are more easily described as a mood rather than a structure of formalised accords and ingredients: blending citrus top notes, a heart of sweet cistus labdanum, and an oak moss base, sometimes enhanced with floral or fruity accords. These fragrances are enigmatic, sophisticated, and urbane, embodying a refined sensuality and elegance ideal for luxurious fabrics and chic urban settings. Chypres are perfect for those seeking a cerebral and stylish fragrance.
