About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Blenheim Bouquet opens with a burst of citrus that is notoriously short-lived; as it fades, it leaves a dry, flattened, faded pine and green impression. On skin, the top notes vanish quickly, revealing a dusty, black-and-white photograph quality—like sifting through a trunk of old wedding photos of a pretty young couple you never met. The once-lively memories are now faded, and the scent settles into a quiet, ghostly echo of its former self.
With main accords of citrus (100%), aromatic (75%), fresh spicy (62%), woody (61%), conifer (53%), and lavender (51%), this is a classic citrus aromatic for men. The heart and base notes are not specified, but the overall effect is a dry, faded pine and green scent that feels like a relic. It suits collectors who appreciate vintage, understated fragrances with a melancholic, nostalgic character—ideal for quiet, reflective moments rather than bold statements.
中文簡介
Blenheim Bouquet 以柑橘開場，但極快消散，隨之而來是乾燥、扁平的松木與綠意，像翻開一箱褪色的黑白婚照，陌生而遙遠。主調為柑橘（100%）、芳香（75%）、清新辛辣（62%）、木質（61%）、針葉（53%）與薰衣草（51%），中後調未明，整體是褪色而幽淡的經典柑橘芳香。氣質懷舊、低調，適合追求古龍水遺風的收藏家，於靜思或日常場合使用，不張揚卻有餘韻。
