The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2021 by Navitus Parfums, Serenade is a fragrance crafted by the perfumer Jorge Lee. This composition opens with cognac and dark chocolate, creating an indulgent and rich base that's further enhanced by honey and beeswax notes. The heart of orange blossom and white florals brings a delicate contrast to the sweetness, while sandalwood, java vetiver oil, and tonka bean provide warmth and depth. Indonesian patchouli leaf and Virginia cedar add an earthy undertone, grounding the fragrance with a touch of natural spice and musk.
Apply a few sprays to pulse points for a slow-building warmth. The cognac and chocolate notes will bloom over time, so it's best not to layer heavily initially. This fragrance reads better close to skin than across a room.
