Floral Velixir perfumes: notes and accords

Reading the floral family

A floral accord can mean very different things. Rose and peony are soft and rosy, magnolia and jasmine white and creamy, ylang-ylang yellow and tropical, violet powdery. The brand's own words, white floral against yellow floral against rose, tell you which of these a perfume leans on.

The notes that recur most among these eight perfumes: patchouli (5), bergamot (3), peony (3), musk (3), litchi (2) and rose (2). The accords the brand names most for them: floral (4), white floral (4), fruity (4), citrus (3) and rose (2).

Choosing within the family

Selene and Artemis mix flowers with fruit. Hera is the powdery one, built on violet. Aphrodite and Athena are the two with rose as a main accord, one earthy, one powdery.
