Vert Empire

Beautiful! The opening mix of petitgrain, angelica, and aromatics smell like cutting open a cactus in the desert after the rain. IYKYK. It is a strong opening, but tones down and morphs into a sweet, slightly juicy, green clean fragrance. Along the lines of Bal d’Afrique, BR Vintage 78, or Celine Parade. Not dupes or anything, but they have the same green, citrusy, clean musk vibe. Unisex, maybe leaning feminine, but more fresh/clean than girly. Being an Alberto Morillas groupie, to me this is the evolved, more modern version of CK One. Mizensir has yet to do me wrong.

This is so good. Despite the name and the notes on the list, it's fruity to me, the lushness of the green notes are sweet and juicy, it is incredibly well balanced and strangely rich but light. Projection not amazing but it lasts more than 8 hours and very well. It's not linear, the citrus dissipates pretty quickly, but the dry down is still complex and inviting, I can't stop sniffing myself! Excellent perfume, next on my list. I adore Mezansir perfumes, they 're incredible.

Bought this at the Mizensir store in Geneva - starts off with a figgy bit but then that disappears - very fresh and citric, super clean scent. Lasts a long time and while I see the similarity to Hermes Un Jardin en Mediterranee, the Vert Empire lasts much longer. You cannot go wrong with Alberto Morillas - fact!

I don’t understand the rating on this one at all. This is such a great green fragrance. I have 3 greens in my collection right now - Jorum’s Paradisi (wild and untamed), Philosykos (fresh and figgy), and now Vert Empire (clean and put-together). I expected this beauty to rate so much higher.

I have no idea why there's amber in the accords list. This fragrance is fresh, tomato-leafy and juicy. Citrus here is zesty. First it dries down a bit powdery but still has some of that leafy greeniness since the beginning. Then there is more ambroxan and more musk. Lovely.
