This vegan fragrance presents a captivating alternative to Dylan Turquoise, exuding a deeper and more sumptuous essence. A celebration of the modern woman’s sensuality and power, the scent embraces a bold and enchanting character. The majestic focal point of purple, often symbolizing womanhood, adds a lavish and opulent touch to its colour palette, commanding attention with its allure.

Evoking complexity and allure, Bergamot takes the lead in the top notes, offering a sharp citrus aroma with hidden spicy undertones. Its refreshing, earl grey tea-like quality adds liveliness and spirit, accompanied by juicy pear that lends a delicate gourmand and thirst-quenching freshness. The subtle, smoky green backing of pear was particularly striking, leaving a lasting impression.

In the heart notes, powdery freesia blooms in vibrant purple, exuding a delightful blend of striking allure and comforting charm. As Versace captures the essence of a cool-girl gothic goddess, the fragrance emanates a distinctly feminine appeal.

Mahonia, also known as “angel’s breath,” elegantly interplays with the heady freesia, imparting a transparent, creamy honey-like note that adds depth and complexity. The addition of pomarose sets a vibrant tone, evoking memories of apples, plums, and raisins, conjuring images of apple pies and sweet sugar treats.

At its foundation, Dylan Purple is grounded by base notes of fresh cedar, which evokes the essence of walking through a lush forest, balanced by the herbal and sagey character of Ambroxan with its caramel and tobacco undertones. Silkolide gracefully signs off the fragrance with its deep amber hue, creating a warm, fruity, and sensuous final impression.
