Online Ormonde Jayne Evernia

Evernia is a green, aromatic, mossy scent created for Men and Women in 2021.

Review

This scent starts off aromatic and green with a hint of a bite, or sharpness, to it that comes from Bergamot and spices. The Oakmoss opens up in the base, and thrives with the help of a floral heart. Iso-E-Super adds its iconic Amber-like essence to the fragrance, adding the faintest hint of creaminess. It evokes an image of drinking a Gin & Tonic on the deck of a cabin in the middle of the woods…the crisp morning air breathing energy into your senses. It is a modern take on a classic aroma that will suit anyone and everyone. Its subtle, light, and breezy essence makes it work well for any time, place, or occasion, and it will work in any season. Though it will remain light, it will last on the skin. It has been compared to Ormonde Man and Ormonde Woman, also from Ormonde Jayne. 

Inspiration

Evernia celebrates the return of real Oakmoss in this modern and universal fragrance. Evernia Prunastri is the scientific term for Oakmoss.

Notes

This scent opens with the spicy essences of Cardamom and Pink Pepper blending with the brightness of Bergamot. Cassis Absolute, Orris Butter and Coriander Seed bring a touch of creaminess as a gentle floral essence sets in with Lily of the Valley, Freesia, Jasmine, Violet, and Rose Absolute. This floral blend adds the faintest hint of sweetness to the earthy quality of the Oakmoss that opens the base of this scent. Cashmeran and Sandalwood add a hint of a woody quality while Iso-E-Super brings a gentle Amber essence. Opoponax and Musk finish off this scent with a subtle sultry resinous-ness. Nothing ever becomes too rich and the Oakmoss thrives throughout.
