Vert Fougere

The snap of a twig underfoot in an early autumn garden, where the air is crisp with greenery and the earthy richness of fallen leaves.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Nicola Pozzani's Vert Fougere for Floris, launched in 2020, is a woody aromatic fragrance that captures the essence of an English garden at its most vibrant. Opening with a bright blend of galbanum and citrus notes, including bergamot and grapefruit, it evokes the freshness of a crisp morning. The heart introduces ginger and lavender for a spicy contrast, while neroli adds a subtle floral touch. As it settles into smoky and powdery bases, cashmeran, cedar, and patchouli create a rich, earthy warmth that is both comforting and intriguing.

How to wear it

Apply Vert Fougere directly to pulse points for optimal longevity. The citrus and spicy notes are bright but fleeting, so aim for multiple light sprays to ensure the woody and smoky base notes have time to develop fully on your skin.
