History
Unue, whose name plays on the idea of one, single in Esperanto, is a score with character: floral, solar, silky, fruity, sensual, skin-close. It is a perfume that seeks balance rather than effect.
Vanina Muracciole opens on a sparkling, fruity top, bergamot, pink pepper, pineapple and anise. The heart reveals a solar plum, jasmine and ylang, while the base lays down sandalwood, white musk and patchouli. Unlike the house's dark orientals, Unue plays light and silk.
Launched in 2020, Unue shows a more luminous Jeroboam, in the vein Floro and Kun Amo would later extend. The perfume plays on the contrast between its skin-closeness and its trail that fills the space, with the characteristic tenacity of the house's extraits.
Fragrance notes
Unue sets a solar floral at the heart, between a fruity top and a woody base.
From top to base, Unue unfolds its writing.
Scent profile
Unue opens sparkling: pink pepper, pineapple and anise bring a spiced, fruity freshness, bergamot a citrus light. It is a lively entrance that announces a solar floral rather than a heady one.
The heart reveals the perfume's silk: jasmine and ylang, rounded by a plum, form a solar, silky floral, sensual without heaviness. This is the layer that gives the perfume its luminous, skin-close character.
The base of sandalwood, white musk and patchouli roots the whole in a soft, woody ground, paler than the enigmatic musks of the orientals. Wear is good, the trail present despite the skin-closeness. A woody floral for spring and summer, unisex, to wear by day or at night.
