Chypress revisits the chypre structure with modern clarity. Bergamot and lemon light up first, immediately rounded by orange blossom and neroli, like a city waking up.

The heart gathers jasmine, rose, osmanthus and ylang-ylang into a golden bouquet; the base, of amber, vanilla, patchouli and musk, gives the chypre its characteristic tension without its severity. A self-assured fragrance that moves from day to evening with ease.

Chypress in detail

Since 1730, Floris has carried on a quietly elegant English perfumery at 89 Jermyn Street in London. Chypress, an eau de toilette, is a modern floral chypre between bergamot zest and orange blossom, which the house lists among its fragrances for her and for him alike.

The official pyramid opens on bergamot, lemon, orange blossom and neroli, a lively, sunny start. The heart brings together jasmine, rose, osmanthus and ylang-ylang. The base pairs amber, vanilla, musk and patchouli, a warm foundation that recalls the structure of chypres.

Chypress is worn in spring and autumn, by day or by night: at the office, at a dinner, or in the evening. It will suit anyone who loves elegant, luminous florals.

Three chypres in our catalogue share its materials: Diaghilev by Roja Parfums brings together lemon, bergamot, jasmine, ylang-ylang, patchouli, vanilla and musk; Hacivat by Nishane pairs bergamot, jasmine and patchouli with pineapple; Memoir Woman by Amouage finds rose, jasmine and musk again in a darker chypre.
