Morning Chess, released by Vilhelm Parfumerie in 2015 and composed by Jérôme Epinette, is a green leather fragrance. Green, woody, amber, leather and citrus accords are all equally strong in a short, focused composition.
The opening is bergamot, which gives a clean, bright citrus lift. The heart pairs leather, smooth and slightly smoky, with galbanum, a sharp, bitter green resin that smells of crushed stems. The combination gives a crisp, slightly austere feel, like a leather armchair in a cool, green room. The base is patchouli and black amber, earthy and warm, which soften the sharpness and add a gentle, resinous depth.
Wearers find longevity moderate to long, with a moderate sillage. It is voted for spring and summer and worn more by day than at night. It suits office days, smart casual dressing and cool mornings, and it is worn by anyone who likes green leather scents that feel refined and dry rather than sweet.
