Silvanus
Silvanus by Electimuss is an unisex extrait de parfum in the luxury price tier. It opens with saffron, oud and clove, moves into sandalwood, cedarwood, rosewood and lily of the valley and dries down to ambergris and white musk. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
Heart
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Rosewood Soft, rosy wood. Gentle and slightly floral.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
Dry-down
- Ambergris Salty, animal, sun-warmed skin. Marine and musky at once.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
