Pegasus is the sixth perfume from the house Parfums de Marly. It is classified as an oriental – fougere composition.Top notes: bergamot, heliotrope and cumin. Heart: jasmine, bitter almond and lavender. Base: amber, vanilla and sandalwood.

True to its roots and fit for a gentleman, this scent has a woody and exceptionally distinguished signature. Pegasus opens up with a balance of fruit, wood, and spice, developed from the blend of cypress, bergamot, and heliotrope. Its heart offers a beautifully intertwined combination of jasmine, lavender, and bitter almond, creating a powdery, fresh fragrance. The base lingers on the skin, featuring vanilla fused with an oriental twist of amber and sandalwood.

The heart of the fragrance further expands on the almonds’ sweet, marzipan-like depth, while an unlisted floral accord (lavender and jasmine?)exudes gentle, refined masculinity. In the base, vanilla is the clear star of the show, replacing a traditional fougere’s mossiness with creamy warmth supplemented by amber notes, while a light, sharp sandalwood keeps everything airy enough to still earn the genre.
