Champs Délaissée

I'm not your average fragrance girl. I'm not as into the super sweet, fruity scents that everyone else seems to love. I like my perfumes to be a little more complex, a little more mysterious. And that's exactly what Champs Délaissée by Pictura Fragrans is. This perfume is named after forgotten fields in Provence, France, and it captures the essence of a bygone era. I love that it's a vintage and mostly natural perfume, made with ethically sourced materials. The scent is pretty complex and haunting, with notes that come off very strongly of almond, beeswax, jasmine, a little rose, strong hay, and definitely some civet and ambers. I know what you're thinking: "That sounds like a lot of ingredients!" But trust me, they all work together beautifully. But yes this perfume is definitely not for everyone. It's not a crowd-pleaser. But if you're looking for something unique, something different, then Champs Délaissée is worth checking out. It's a truly special perfume that will make you feel luxurious and like you're stepping back in time.

Champs Délaissée is an exquisite new perfume from Pictura Fragrans. Elegant and classic. It echoes a forgotten time when Europeans crafted perfumes from organic botanicals. The top notes are filled with spring flowers and citrus fruits, and a rainbow of colors fills the senses when first applied. When the heart notes come, they bloom in the senses like sipping orange tea in a field of flowers. This is an excellent example of a unisex scent that is ripe with fruit and blossoms, and a scent I can wear often.

This Fragrance caught me off guard. I was expecting a bright citrus opening with sweet almond. But I was very impressively met with loads of the beeswax, civet, and oud. The longevity is awesome. In the dry down (4-8 hrs) is when all of the mid notes came out best on my skin. I was met with all of the florals, civet, hay and oud notes during this time period. AMAZING fragrance. I love it.

Champs Délaissée is a beautiful mature fragrance. It’s definitely a bold musk but lays on the skin so softly and brings a nostalgic vintage-like feeling. So unique with all its varying components but working together so well to give you that experience of being in the fields of Provence!
