Silver Birch
by Amouroud
Silver Birch by Amouroud unfolds with a vibrant, juicy opening of fig and mandarin orange, balanced by the subtle warmth of cardamom and a crisp citrus lift. The heart reveals a delicate blend of white floral notes—Egyptian jasmine and orange blossom—woven through with a faint papyrus-like dryness, creating a surprisingly fresh and elegant transition. The base settles into a refined mix of vetiver, suede, and ylang-ylang, delivering a smooth, earthy backbone with a hint of velvety leather. This scent is distinctly modern and unisex, making it suitable for both professional and refined social settings. Performance is strong—longevity lasts 8 to 10 hours with moderate sillage that projects well without overwhelming. The overall impression is clean, structured, and elegant; not overly sweet or heavy, with a green, woody-citrus freshness that evolves into a deeper, more mysterious suede-vetiver dry-down. It performs well in spring and autumn, and some find it surprisingly wearable even in winter.
