About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Duende by J. Del Pozo, composed by Olivier Cresp in 1992, is a floral fragrance that centers on a lush yellow floral heart. While top notes are not documented, the main accords reveal a bright citrus opening (61%) that gives way to a rich bouquet of mimosa, jasmine, and ylang-ylang. This trio creates a sweet (71%), powdery (62%) core that feels both vintage and comforting. The base of wormwood, thyme, cedar, and sandalwood adds an aromatic (62%) and woody (61%) foundation, with the herbal bitterness of wormwood and thyme contrasting the floral sweetness. The result is a complex, nuanced scent that evolves from sparkling to soft and earthy.
Collectors who appreciate classic 90s florals with a twist will find Duende compelling. It suits those who enjoy powdery, yellow floral compositions with an aromatic edge. Ideal for daytime wear in cooler seasons, it can also be a signature scent for someone seeking a less common, elegant fragrance. The blend of sweet and herbal notes makes it versatile yet distinctive, a testament to Cresp's skill. This is a scent for those who value depth and a touch of nostalgia.
中文簡介
J. Del Pozo Duende 1992年由Olivier Cresp調製,屬花香調。雖然前調未記載,但主調顯示柑橘(61%)開場,隨後是含羞草、茉莉和依蘭依蘭的黃花三重奏,帶來甜美(71%)與粉質(62%)的核心。基調的苦艾、百里香、雪松和檀香則賦予芳香(62%)與木質(61%)底蘊,苦艾和百里香的草本苦味與花香甜味形成對比。整體從明亮轉為柔和泥土感,層次豐富。
適合喜愛經典90年代花香、粉質黃花與芳香邊緣的收藏家。日常秋冬季使用尤佳,也可作為獨特簽名香。

Price ranges are compiled from our own recorded transactions, not from asking prices.
A batch code cannot prove authenticity on its own, but it can expose contradictions — a code that decodes to a date before the fragrance existed, or a bottle and box that disagree.
