Here’s a Bazaar Fragrance Award winner that deserves a spot in your fragrance wardrobe. Inspired by iconic vintage scents of years past, Merit’s Retrospect l’extrait de parfum is a balanced and robust blend, containing nearly 30 percent perfume oil.
“Many of the notes that we used in Retrospect are not used very often in perfumery today, such as aldehydes and orris concrete,” perfumer Fanny Bal explains. “We used these classic notes and combined them with more modern ones like pear and musk to create a uniquely layered effect, and the result is nostalgia: a fragrance that reminds you of something warm and familiar, with a modern sensibility.”
Key notes: Bergamot, pear, ambrette, aldehydes, jasmine, rose, rosemary, violet, orris, vanilla, musk, moss
