About This Perfume
Think citrus peel, cedar wood, smoky vanilla: that is Vertus Majeste. It opens with bergamot, lemon and orange, moves into cedar, patchouli and ylang-ylang and settles on animalic notes, vanilla and woody notes. It reads unisex.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. It suits nights out. Released in 2017.
Wearers report that it lasts through a full day, and projects strongly and fills a room.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something woody and grounded for nights out.
- Sample first if: you are unsure about strong woody notes; this one divides opinion.
