Stockholm 1978
Stockholm 1978 by Vilhelm Parfumerie is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with black pepper, lemon and almond, moves into geranium and rosemary and dries down to patchouli, amber and oakmoss. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Almond Marzipan and cherry-stone. Sweet with a bitter undertone.
Heart
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Rosemary Sharp, camphorous herb. Bracing and clean, borders on medicinal.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Oakmoss Damp forest floor. Bitter, green and the backbone of every chypre.
