About This Perfume
I Was Here by Laverne is a Woody Chypre fragrance for women and men. I Was Here was launched in 2022. Top notes are Lavender and Palisander Rosewood; middle notes are Rose and Cedar; base notes are Sandalwood, Amber, Musk and Agarwood (Oud). Still filled with it, we breathe its effect, and its details remain firm and constant, and that is what the scent of I was here embodies. It settles within the senses and leaves all this magic and influence dwelling in the place, it is a charming expression of the mixture of the audacity of the oud and the leaf of the rose, and how the scent stops the moment and shakes it with poetic and tangible warmth, tempts the dream and organization with the aura around you, and renews your finding of joy in the heart,and see the splendor inherent in Your presence,This perfume gives you bragging to be you, and that your fragrance is endemic here, and this scent bears your name and belongs to you and returns to you, and that you are always worth remembering, intense with love, full of beauty, fragrant with memories.
