About This Perfume
This is Not Serotonin by Hormone Paris is a Oriental Vanilla fragrance for women and men. This is Not Serotonin was launched in 2020. The nose behind this fragrance is Shadi Samra. Top notes are Geranium and Bergamot; middle notes are Cypriol, Cedar and Nutmeg; base notes are Moss, Ambergris, Vetiver and Oud. Bergamot and geranium open cleanly — bright, structured, and even from the first moment. Cypriol, nutmeg, and cedar give the heart a warm aromatic texture, slightly green and dry, neither lifted nor heavy. Moss, vetiver, ambergris, and oud settle into a base of sustained depth: grounded, composed, and precisely balanced. Serotonin is not happiness — it is the ground beneath happiness, the baseline that makes everything else possible. This is what that equilibrium smells like. Unisex.
