"De Profundis is a dark, cool floral fragrance built around chrysanthemum and violet. Green facets give the opening a damp, vegetal quality, while earthy nuances create an impression of soil and shadow. Incense adds a faintly smoky and contemplative dimension without overpowering the flowers. The composition is unusual and melancholic rather than conventionally sweet or romantic. Its floral character remains present through the drydown, where musk and earth provide a soft, persistent foundation. The overall effect is haunting, delicate, and atmospheric, with a distinctly somber Serge Lutens style."
