The meaning of Daphne is Laurel Tree. Lord's Jester perfumery created a chypre floral eau de toilette called, Daphne.
This brilliant mix of Greek Mythology and twenty two notes (prohibited by big manufactures) gives a look back into how perfume was made in the days of old.
Mr. Gottschalk |
The complex scent of chypre has been given the right tones that inspired Lord's Jester owner and creator of Daphne Eau de Toliette, Adam Gottschalk the inspiration to bring the legendary story of Apollo and the nymph of Arcadia, Daphne to life in the form of a fragrance.
Daphne Eau de Toilette is a spicy citrus fragrance that first comes off as dark and slightly intense. I personally love dark and robust scents so I was very happy about this but after several hours of wear, it simmers down to a dainty mist. The top notes of tangerine and mandarin fade into a sweet sensation that last all day.
The fragrance is sensual with masculine overtones, so that is why it is considered a unisex fragrance.
Daphne Eau de Toilette contains the following.
Top Notes:
Cypress, Ginger, Bergamot, Tangerine, Mandarin, Grapefruit, Tagetes
Heart Notes:
Immortelle, Frangipani, Magnolia, Jasmine, Jasmine sambac, Rose, Rose otto
Base Notes:
Oakmoss, Benzoin, Labdanum, Vanilla, Tonka bean, Pine needle, Styrax, Ambergris
Daphne Eau de Toilette is clearly a true representation of the laurel tree that Apollo proclaimed to be his tree after Daphne turned into a tree.
The laurel tree means recognition of skill which is why the leaves are formed into a crown and worn upon the head.
Daphne Eau de Toilette is Mr. Gottschalk's legacy and crowning achievement.
