Initio Paragon Extrait De Parfum was launched in 2022 by Initio Parfums Privés as part of their Hedonist Collection. This unisex fragrance embodies spiritual sophistication and modern elegance, inspired by sacred plants and ancient Incan rituals. Paragon is an aromatic-woody-spicy composition that balances freshness, warmth, and depth, perfect for those seeking a grounding yet uplifting scent experience. The fragrance opens with bright and soothing bergamot, lavender, and white sage, creating an aromatic and invigorating introduction. The citrusy- herbal brightness of bergamot and the calming freshness of lavender are enhanced by the earthy, slightly smoky aroma of white sage, setting a serene and balanced tone. At its heart, plum, palo santo, and black pepper form a rich, intriguing blend. The sweet and slightly tart plum adds a luscious depth, while smoky palo santo brings mystical warmth, and black pepper adds a subtle spicy kick. Together, these notes create a sophisticated, layered heart that evolves beautifully on the skin. The base of sandalwood and agarwood (oud) grounds the fragrance with creamy, woody richness and a lingering sensuality. The smooth sandalwood softens the intensity of oud, resulting in a luxurious and long-lasting dry-down that leaves an elegant and confident trail.
