Wirtanen is a woody, floral, Musk scent created for Men and Women in 2019 by perfumer Paolo Terenzi.
Review
This scent is an intriguing one. Though it includes two different Ouds, its floral and gourmand essences help it develop into something refined and mellow. It can be worn any time, place, or occasion you choose, and will work well in any season. Though it can feel subtle, it will last you all day. It has been compared to a blend of Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 & Parfums de Marly Delina Exclusif. Try this sample and let us know what you think!
Inspiration
Wirtanen captures the mystery of the Wirtanen Comet, a comet whose movement never quite let astronomers get the chance to study it. It evokes the excitement and calm that overcomes one who is awaiting something special.
Notes
Laotian Oudh and Cambodian Oudh are enveloped by a floral bouquet of Ylang Ylang, Rose, Jasmine, and Peony. A touch of Bergamot adds a hint of freshness while Black Pepper plays on the spicy nuances of this exotic wood. Caramel and Vanilla in the base add a subtle sweetness while Musk and Amber add a sultry warmth. A final note of Sandalwood plays on both the sweet and woody aspects and helps with longevity.
