Machiavelli looks at a kind of power that does not force itself on anyone: magnetism. Vilhelm Parfumerie links it to Niccolò Machiavelli, a Renaissance diplomat and political writer, to create a fragrance of calm self-assurance that never seeks the spotlight.
Green apple, pineapple and black pepper open the composition brightly. Patchouli, white tobacco and tonka bean then form a warm, deep heart, before a base of musk and ambroxan. A fresh, fruity musky scent with amber accents.

Machiavelli in detail
With Machiavelli, Vilhelm Parfumerie turns to a discreet form of power: magnetism. The name refers to Niccolò Machiavelli, Renaissance statesman and political writer; the fragrance keeps from him the idea of a calm authority that makes itself felt without raising its voice.
The official pyramid opens on green apple, pineapple and black pepper, a lively, fruity and slightly piquant start. The heart pairs patchouli, a white tobacco that Volute files under tobacco leaf, and tonka bean, for a deep warmth. The base brings together musk and ambroxan, which give the fragrance its musky softness and its radiance.
Machiavelli can be worn from spring to autumn, by day or by night: at the office, at an important meeting or on an evening when you want to be noticed without overdoing it.
Three fragrances in our catalogue share several of its notes: Triumph of Bacchus Extrait by Argos brings together apple, patchouli, tobacco, tonka and musk; Red Tobacco by Mancera pairs apple, patchouli, tobacco and musk; Abu Dhabi by Memo Paris shares patchouli, ambroxan and musk.
