Grey Blazer
A fresh fougère conceived as a grey blazer of fragrance: an imagined corporate worker around 2000 smells Donegal tweed and dreams of Ireland's heathered hills.
Perfumer: David Seth Moltz
Grey Blazer was conceived as a grey blazer of fragrance: the Donegal-flecked herringbone you can wear every day for most of the year, in formal or relaxed settings. Behind it the creator imagines a fictional figure, a corporate schmuck around 2000 who wants out of "the life" and, smelling the wool of a perfect Donegal blazer, dreams of visiting Ireland and standing in the heathered hills.
The materials head toward that daydream. Green spices combine coriander, cardamom and green pepper into something bracing. Hedgerow flowers are an accord of wild flowers found all over Ireland, yellow iris, sea pinks, thistle and geranium, adding floral contrast to the woods, spices and wool. Virgin wool at the base is the smell of raw wool: earthy and herbal, slightly smoky, with a touch of stone fruit.
D.S. & Durga files it as a fresh fougère. Its creator describes it as a concoction of herbs, flowers, spices, tea and musk meant to work on anyone, anywhere.
