Elegant Oriental Woody Sophistication: Parfums de Marly Pegasus Eau de Parfum
Radiate timeless nobility and balanced allure with a powdery fusion of almond sweetness, citrus bergamot brightness, and anise spice evolving into floral violet leaves elegance and cypress greenness, grounded in creamy vanilla-sandalwood warmth, evoking regal poise in Parfums de Marly Pegasus Eau de Parfum, launched in 2011 (masculine oriental woody, charismatic and versatile appeal)—expertly crafted as a PdM icon emphasizing almond and vanilla's addictive harmony with woody depth. Widely regarded as a benchmark almond-vanilla fragrance with prominent almond creaminess, vanilla sweetness, and Ambrox smokiness, it's celebrated for its refined vibrancy, nutty-citrus opening contrasted by smooth woody finish, addictive powdery trail, and excellent performance in a sophisticated, compliment-magnet composition.
This refined elixir opens with a luminous, aromatic surge of anise, bergamot, and almond for spicy-citrus lift that's fresh and intriguing with nutty undertones, then unfolds into a heart of cypress, violet leaves, and orange blossom for green, powdery-floral layers that feel elegant and harmonious, finally anchoring in a base of Ambrox, vanilla, and sandalwood for creamy, woody richness with lingering sensual resonance. It's nutty-fresh yet woody-warm, luminous yet grounded, vibrant yet refined—like anise-bergamot zest laced with almond over cypress-violet leaves with orange blossom nuance, rooted in vanilla-Ambrox sandalwood that endures as a confident, regal aura of timeless sophistication.
It bursts with anise and bergamot—spicy, citrusy, and strikingly fresh with aromatic zest. The heart reveals cypress and violet leaves alongside orange blossom, crafting a green-powdery core that's elegant, balanced, and enchanting. It dries down to a luxurious vanilla-Ambrox embrace—creamy, woody, and subtly smoky—forming an enduring, magnetic trail that's masculine-leaning, addictive, and irresistibly luxurious.
