Crushed Velvet

Crushed Velvet by A.N Other is a Woody Spicy fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Crushed Velvet was launched in 2024. The nose behind this fragrance is Catherine Selig. Top notes are Saffron, Amyris and Cypress; middle notes are Vanilla Orchid, Poppy, Incense and Smoke; base notes are Frankincense, Skin musk and Sandalwood. Warmth delivered with the gentle touch of velvet. Like sweet, soft, words spoken in a whisper. The intense notes of Saffron Blossom are hard to tame, and this makes the perfume complex. Saffron spice is a tiny vivid crimson thread, not much thicker than hair, with a spirit as wild as Daenerys Targaryen; and is as difficult to control as her dragons. The depth comes from Frankincense. An enigmatic gum resin that traces its roots to the Bible. It lends the warmth and comfort needed to “calm” Saffron’s ardor. “I wanted to give a sense of security that comes from a position of power. To surround the wearer with a halo of warmth and safety, like a cocoon.” Catherine Selig
