About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Mitsouko (1919) is a landmark chypre fruity that opens with bergamot, citruses, rose, and jasmine. The heart reveals a distinctive peach note, alongside rose, jasmine, lilac, and ylang-ylang, creating a lush, slightly sweet floral core. The base is a classic chypre foundation: oakmoss, spices, amber, vetiver, and cinnamon, delivering a mossy, earthy, and warmly spicy drydown. With main accords of citrus (100%), mossy (94%), and earthy (89%), it's a fragrance of depth and complexity.
This is for collectors who appreciate vintage chypres and complex, evolving compositions. It suits those who favor mossy, woody, and spicy profiles over modern gourmands. Ideal for evening wear or cool weather, Mitsouko exudes timeless elegance and mystery. Its enduring structure makes it a must-try for any serious perfume enthusiast.
