Dark Orchid by Amouroud, created by Cécile Hua in 2016, is a floral fragrance. Flowers lead, most people also note citrus, and smaller groups find wood, sweetness and amber.

The top is bright and slightly unusual: Sicilian bergamot, mandarin orange and other citruses give a sunny freshness, while black gardenia adds a creamy, dark floral note. The heart is rich and exotic, with black orchid for a velvety, slightly sweet tone, ylang-ylang for buttery warmth, jasmine for luminous sweetness and lotus for a watery, clean softness. The base settles on incense for a soft smoke, sandalwood for creaminess, Indonesian patchouli leaf for earthiness and vanilla for warmth.

Dark Orchid is shared and can be worn by anyone. It suits evenings, dinners and special occasions in autumn and spring, and it should appeal to people who like lush, heady florals with a dark, smoky base.
