Narciso
Narciso by Narciso Rodriguez is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2014 in the designer price tier. It opens with gardenia and rose, moves into musk and vetiver and dries down to cedarwood, amber and white musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Gardenia Creamy white floral with a mushroomy edge. Lush and old-Hollywood.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Heart
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
