Perseus by Parfums De Marly is the latest fragrance from the 18th century-inspired French perfumery and it's touted as a luminous, refreshing creation. This eau de parfum gets its qualities from top notes of bergamot, grapefruit and blackcurrant bud, which lead to heart notes of vetiver, green mandarin and geranium. At its base, Perseus is a woody aromatic fragrance that gives off dry woods, cashmere wood and ambergris accord. As such, Parfums De Marly recommends wearing this fragrance with a long-lasting sillage "in the morning for a boost of energy to last an entire summer's day."
In Greek mythology, Perseus' defeat of Medusa symbolizes the triumph of light over darkness and this fragrance's uplifting notes and bright packaging are imbued with themes of renewal, warmth and illumination.
