Whisper is a fruity, floral, woody scent created for Women in 2024 by perfumer Laurent Le Guernac.
Review
This scent is perfect for the Rose lover. Rose Essential is blended with fruits, Jasmine, and Oud to create a scent that feels both classic and new. Lychee and Plum add an ever-so-slightly jammy quality to the Rose, which mellows as the Oud and Musk bring a sultry earthiness and gentle woody quality. Over time, everything becomes beautifully blended and well rounded, eventually feeling like a new Rose scent vs something traditional. It is a scent that will make the young woman feel grown, and the grown woman feel sophisticated and carnal. It can be worn any time, place, or occasion, and will work well in any weather. In its Extrait format, it will last all day. It is comparable to something along the lines of Hermetica Rosefire or Mind Games’ Sans Voir.
Inspiration
Whisper takes inspiration from Kyoto, Japan, and the delicate balance between flowers and forests, and the grace and beauty of nature. Just as some Cherry Blossom fragrances take on a unique and woody tone, so too does Whisper, but with Rose.
Notes
Rose Essential can be felt all throughout this composition, changing form throughout the dry down. Egyptian Geranium gives the Rose a subtle green, extra floral, boost just before Red Lychee and Black Plum add a fruity, and slightly jammy, quality. The fruits mellow as Orris and Jasmin Absolute join in at the heart, bringing a slightly traditional Rose vibe. Oud comes in at the base of the scent, giving the composition a distinct woody vibe, like tree branches or Rose Stems. Moss, Neo-Musks and Ambery Iso E Super bring a mellow, calming, quality to the dry down of this scent, where, aside from the Rose, no note stands out above another, but all blends and works together to help the Rose shine bright.
