{"product_id":"saphir-for-her-eau-de-parfum-200ml","title":"For Her Eau de Parfum 200ml","description":"\u003cp\u003ePeach and rose is one of the oldest pairings in perfumery, and Saphir For Her Eau de Parfum 200ml makes no effort to disguise that it is built on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe peach arrives first, and it is the soft, faintly furred kind rather than anything sharp or juice like. Rose comes in almost at once, full and a little jammy against the fruit, so the opening is traditional in a way that will either reassure you or bore you depending on what you came for. Amber is the only material in the middle, and it carries more than its share of the work: it warms the fruit and the flower from underneath and begins pulling the whole thing in a richer direction well before the base proper arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat base is patchouli and sandalwood. Patchouli reads dark and earthy here rather than dusty, and it is what gives the scent its depth and its slightly resinous edge. Sandalwood smooths that over, creamy and soft grained, and between them they leave the kind of close, warm finish that is still on a scarf the next morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFive materials in total, arranged in the oldest order there is, with fruit and flower above and warmth below. Nothing about it is experimental and that is rather the appeal. It is an evening fragrance before it is a daytime one, better in autumn and winter than in high summer, and it suits anyone who wants to be noticed at conversational distance without having to explain why.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe house behind it is Spanish. Saphir began as a Zaragoza warehouse run by one family under the name Almacenes Corinto, and has been in fragrance since 1940. Ownership has stayed Spanish, production has stayed in Zaragoza at a plant that runs its own research centre, and the brief has stayed the same throughout: perfume that ordinary people can afford to buy by the bottle rather than by the sample.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saphir","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54165095383367,"sku":"ENG63406","price":35.3,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/eng63406.jpg?v=1781540313","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/saphir-for-her-eau-de-parfum-200ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
