Description La Primavera Extrait is a green, sunny floral in the spirit of Botticelli's spring. Argos drew on Sandro Botticelli's Primavera for this one, and the Extrait is the house's richer take on its La Primavera composition, with a higher oil load and more musk and vanilla in the base. It opens on bergamot, lemon and crushed green leaves, moves into rose and powdery heliotrope, and dries down to vetiver, musk and vanilla. The result is fresh at the top and soft and skin-close by the afternoon. Argos pitches it as unisex with a graceful floral lean, suited to daytime and to romantic evenings. Scent Character Woody — 31% Fresh — 25% Floral — 25% Sweet — 19% Translation: an even split between green-citrus freshness and rose-heliotrope florals, laid on a woody vetiver base with a soft vanilla sweetness. Fragrance Pyramid Top: Bergamot, Lemon, Green Leaves Heart: Rose, Heliotrope Base: Vetiver, Musk, Vanilla Performance Longevity: Around 7–9 hours on skin for most wearers; the musk and vanilla hold the base. Sillage: Moderate. It stays polite rather than loud. Projection: About arm's length early, then close to the skin.

Fresh first: bergamot, lemon and green leaves. The vanilla only shows in the drydown, and it stays soft. How is the Extrait different from the original La Primavera? Argos describes the Extrait as a deeper version with a higher oil concentration, more musk and more vanilla, for a smoother and longer floral. Is it men's or women's? Unisex, with a floral lean from the rose and heliotrope. When should I wear it? Daytime in Spring and Summer is where it shines, and it works at the office.
