Sometimes you encounter a scent that touches you. Not because she is overwhelming, but precisely because she carries something intimate and genuine within her. For us, that fragrance story is connected to one of the most meaningful moments in our lives: our wedding day.
Velvety-soft peony wasn't chosen at random; it was born out of love. And you can feel it.
Why this scent?
A year ago, we stood at city hall, surrounded by family and friends. During the preparations, we wanted to choose a theme that resonated with us – soft, loving, and a little different. That's why I didn't immediately think of the classic rose, but of the peony: elegant, fresh and just a little bit more refined.
Searching for the scent that could capture that feeling, we came across what would eventually become our Velvety Peony.
A fragrance that you don't just smell, but experience – soft, round and with a touch of nostalgia.
What makes this fragrance so unique?
Instead of the typical floral scent, we opted for something more subtle. Velvety Peony is built up in layers that gently embrace you:
Top note : fresh freesia
Middle notes : peony, heliotrope, milk and a soft hint of caramel
Base notes : musk, tonka bean and vanilla
Fragrance profile: Floral • Musky • Gourmand
It's like stepping into a room where someone has just carefully opened the curtains, letting in light, and a warm perfume greets you. No artificiality, just softness.
A tip: how do you best let this fragrance come into its own?
Velvety-soft peonies look best in places where you want to create warmth and ambiance. Think of:
Living room, where you can relax or receive visitors
Entrance hall – a subtle scent that welcomes you as soon as you open the door
Place a diffuser in a draft-free corner or on an open cabinet. This way, the scent will spread gently and remain in the background.
Why we stand behind this fragrance
We'll be honest: we still smell this fragrance almost daily. Not because it's a bestseller, but because it breathes our own story.
As a creator, it's tempting to move on to "the next fragrance," but some scents stay with you. They don't just tell a story—they remain a part of your life.
We've never regretted our choice. And we notice that customers who discover this fragrance share that same feeling. Like finding something you didn't know you were looking for.
Maybe this will give you an insight too
Perhaps you use fragrance primarily 'because it smells nice'. But scent can be more. It can preserve a memory. Change your mood. Bring you back to what truly matters.
