Spirit of Kings Notion Parfum

Description

Notion pairs a cool eucalyptus-saffron opening with powdery orris and rose over earthy vetiver. Released in 2022 by Spirit of Kings, whose fragrances are each named for a royal virtue, it was composed by Christian Provenzano and stands for visionary, transformative ideas. Eucalyptus, saffron, lime and ginger open it with a herbal snap, orris, Bulgarian rose, heliotrope, magnolia and cashmere musk create a powdery floral heart, and patchouli, Haitian vetiver and crystal amber finish it. One reviewer compared it to a deeper, more complex take on the original Old Spice.

Scent Character
