About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Vison by Robert Beaulieu, composed by François Robert in 1998, is a lush Oriental that opens with a bright, sunlit blend of Italian mandarin and neroli. The citrus sparkle quickly gives way to a full-bodied heart of ylang-ylang, mimosa, jasmine, and orange blossom—a creamy, indolic white floral bouquet that feels both vintage and voluptuous. As it dries down, the base reveals a warm, resinous depth: sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar are sweetened by vanilla, tonka bean, and musk, with a distinctive twist of dried fruits that adds a jammy, almost boozy richness. The overall effect is sweet (100%), woody (96%), and fruity (82%), with a powdery softness that lingers close to the skin.

This is a fragrance for collectors who appreciate the opulent, complex orientals of the 1990s—think Guerlain or Rochas but with a fruitier, more gourmand-adjacent edge. It suits cool weather and evening wear, and will appeal to those who love rich, sweet, and woody compositions with a vintage soul. The dried fruit note makes it a standout for anyone seeking a less common, more decadent take on the genre.

中文簡介

Vison 由 Robert Beaulieu 於 1998 年推出,調香師 François Robert 以意大利柑橘與橙花揭開序幕,清新明亮。核心是依蘭依蘭、含羞草、茉莉與橙花的濃郁白花束,豐腴而帶復古感。基調以檀香、廣藿香、雪松為骨幹,綴以香草、零陵香豆、麝香,並以乾果點睛,添上果醬般的甜潤與微醺感。整體甜度極高,木質與果香並重,粉感柔軟,貼膚持久。適合涼爽天氣與晚間場合,推薦給鍾情九十年代豐潤東方調、追求與別不同乾果甜香的收藏家。

Before you buy

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.
