About This Perfume
Ilex by Cultus Artem is a Floral Green fragrance for women and men. Ilex was launched in 2019. The nose behind this fragrance is Holly Tupper. The fragrance features Mate, Peppertree, Jasmine Sambac, Petitgrain Paraguay, Bergamot, Neroli, French Narcissus and Sandalwood. "Smokey Mate tea washes over you as dry leaves, fresh twigs and wafts of leaf smoke orbit. A mystic formation of sweet citrus from Bergamot and Neroli deliver you to a complexity of emotions fueled by animalic Jasmin sambac and the richness of rare iris notes in the Narcissus. Creating enticement and then seduction, Ilex suspends you in the instant between live foliage and rapturous flame." - Brand Website.
