Narciso (White)

Narciso (White), inspired by Narciso Rodriguez Narciso Eau de Parfum (2014)

Gardenia and rose open the scent together, the gardenia full and the rose fresher. Musk soon becomes the main voice, smooth and close to the skin. Vetiver and two cedars, black and white, give the base a dry, woody line that keeps it from turning sweet.

About the original

Aurélien Guichard composed Narciso, launched in autumn 2014 as the first fragrance in the NARCISO line. It came in a square, milky-white bottle with black lettering, and Raquel Zimmermann fronted the campaign. A 2015 Eau de Toilette swapped gardenia for peony, and variants such as Poudrée, Rouge, Ambrée and Cristal followed. The original white-cube Eau de Parfum no longer appears on the brand's NARCISO page or at the major retailers checked.

Our version

Ours is an independent eau de parfum made to evoke the same character. It is not Narciso Rodriguez stock, not an official relaunch and not the original formula.

Who it suits

Its musky, intimate character makes it an easy daily scent for someone who likes understated sensuality. The gardenia lends the opening some creaminess, but overall it stays quiet rather than loud.
