Nathalie Feisthauer

"Papilio is a refined floral woody musk created around the luminous character of magnolia. Its opening is brightened by bergamot, while a sophisticated floral heart combines magnolia, neroli, orris, heliotrope, and lily of the valley. Carrot and Hedione HC add texture, diffusion, and a gently modern floral effect. The drydown brings together cedarwood, vetiver, amyris, ambroxan, benzoin, vanilla, opoponax, and musks. Peach and ambrette soften the composition with a smooth, subtly fruity and musky warmth. Created as a concentrated pure perfume, Papilio presents an elegant and naturalistic floral style rather than an overtly loud or trendy one."

Reviews Summary

“Papilio is generally regarded as multifaceted, lively, and polished, with a naturalistic magnolia-centered floral impression. Its warm woody-musky base gives the fragrance depth and smoothness, while the overall presentation remains elegant and refined rather than loud. The composition is often appreciated for its graceful niche character and sophisticated floral construction.”
