Blanc Polychrome
Blanc Polychrome by Atelier des Ors is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with mandarin, lemon and rhubarb, moves into jasmine, fig leaf and lavender and dries down to ambroxan, oakmoss and musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Rhubarb Tart, pink and green at once. Sour fruit with a stalky edge.
Heart
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
- Fig Leaf Milky, green and slightly coconut-like. The smell of shade.
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
Dry-down
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
