About This Fragrance
Chypre-Siam by Rogue Perfumery is a Chypre fragrance for women and men. Chypre-Siam was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Manuel Cross. Top notes are Kaffir Lime and Basil; middle notes are Jasmine and Ylang-Ylang; base notes are Oakmoss, Civet, Spices, Benzoin, Sandalwood and Leather. "A still-life moment in the tropical eastern forest captured in a traditional chypre structure. Chypre-Siam is a vintage-style chypre fragrance, complete with nitromusks and a huge dose of oakmoss! Opening notes are kaffir lime and basil. Jasmine and ylang sweep across the forest floor and rest upon a warm base of oakmoss, sandalwood, spices, benzoin and civet. The idea for this fragrance came to me after sampling Coty's original Chypre back in 2012. I was already a fan of the genre, but Coty's original was THE epitome; I could smell the framework of so many of my favorite fragrances that were slowly disappearing from production. I was in my garden picking kaffir lime leaves for a curry my wife and I were preparing for dinner, and their bright fragrance instantly reminded me of the Chypre de Coty sample from days prior. I smelled the leaves again and realized that I was also catching whiffs of the jasmine blossoms on the other side of the yard! That was the moment; I thought how novel it would be to recreate, not the original Chypre, but rather the experience of the original using Southeast Asian materials (namely kaffir lime, holy basil and lemongrass -jasmine, ylang etc, of course, have already been mainstays of the perfumers palette). Chypre-Siam took five years to complete. I've created a beautiful jasmine base that utilizes an even lovelier jasmine absolute, which helps meld the civet notes seamlessly into the benzoin base. What you get in the end is a "chypre experience" moreso than just of a list of notes. I wanted this fragrance to be able to briefly transport one back 90+ years. Enjoy!" - a note from the brand
