Whispers of the Forest: Oriental Velours Les Indemodables Oriental Velours by Les Indémodables, crafted in 2016 by perfumer Florence Fouillet Dubois, draws its inspiration from the serene and mystical ambiance of a forest in late autumn. The fragrance evokes the image of an alpine loft just below the treeline, where the quietude of snow-dampened surroundings meets the warmth of a kindled hearth. This setting is brought to life through the harmonious blend of natural ingredients, including Indian jasmine, Madagascan vanilla, Somalian myrrh, Haitian vetiver, and Alpine spruce oil. Olfactory Notes Oriental Velours unveils a cool, green freshness, reminiscent of a serene alpine forest. This initial impression is crafted by the interplay of spruce and Haitian vetiver, evoking the crispness of snow-laden branches and the earthy scent of damp soil. As the fragrance evolves, the heart reveals a harmonious blend of Somalian myrrh and Indian jasmine, introducing a resinous depth intertwined with subtle floral nuances. This phase conjures images of ancient woods and the gentle warmth of a secluded cabin. In the final stage, Madagascan vanilla emerges, imparting a soft, velvety sweetness that envelops the senses, akin to the comforting embrace of plush velour fabric.
