Is this fragrance suitable for a professional office environment?+−
While it has a business-appropriate maturity, the prominent liquorice and absinthe notes make it a "statement" scent. It is best suited for those in creative professional roles or for evening business functions rather than a conservative office setting.
How does the liquorice note behave on the skin?+−
The liquorice absolute is very prominent throughout the mid-wear. It starts off spicy and sharp but eventually evolves into a smoother, sweeter profile as it merges with the sandalwood and patchouli in the base.
Is Fièvre Verte better for men or women?+−
It is marketed as a unisex fragrance. Its classification as a spicy green with heavy woody notes like vetiver and sandalwood gives it a traditional masculine backbone, but the sweetness of the liquorice and the softness of the violet leaf make it equally popular among women who enjoy bold, herbal scents.
Does this fragrance smell like a typical fresh "green" scent?+−
No. Unlike "soapy" or "grassy" green scents, this is a "spicy green." It relies on herbal wormwood (absinth) and violet leaves, which provide a darker, more atmospheric greenery than a bright citrus or floral green fragrance.
