About This Perfume
Tegenwind by Van De Zotte is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Tegenwind was launched in 2025. The nose behind this fragrance is Maxime Gonzalez-Anton. Top notes are juniper berry, Pink Pepper, Geosmin and Water Mint; middle notes are Patchouli, Geranium, Resins and Eucalyptus; base notes are Ambergris, Leather, Vetiver and Sandalwood. The latest addition to the Van de Zotte line, launched in December 2025, revolves around the Dutch wind, fittingly named Tegenwind (headwind). "Imagine cycling through a flat, open landscape. Meadows on either side. No hills, no trees to hide behind, and yet every pedal stroke feels like climbing a mountain. That's 'tegenwind'." -Van de Zotte.
