CHIQIO’s Forest Child

Color Tones 

The fragrance resembles a lush green, lilac, and amber. I picture it to be a moist, vibrant forest, filled with lush greenery, moss scattered across the barks, a splash of lilac flowers spreading across the landscape, and an amber sun gazing through the trees. For me, that imagery gives that magical charm its name. 

Seasonal Essence

The fragrance captures the aura of spring. The  fresh and woody notes creates an aroma that is  both calm and energized, which is similar to how  nature becomes vibrantly alive after a long winter  season. 

Gender Appeal 

I believe that this scent can be suitable for both  men and women who like an earthy, woody smell or  would want something that is rich, strong, and  captivating as they explore their fragrance journey. 

Scenes 

The imagery that I think could evoke a scene based on the perfume’s name and its scent is a magical forest. I imagine wandering into an ethereal meadow forest, filled with ancient trees, mysterious mists with a hint of a mystical atmosphere added to it. 

Nature Adventurer 

The person would be a nature enthusiast, someone who has inspiration and dedication in protecting and preserving the natural environment. This person would likely wear casual clothes, with a preference for natural fabrics. Their job might be a forester, photographer, or an environmental scientist. The books would be “The Lord of the Rings” series, “The Chronicles of Narnia” series or anything related to fantasy. Their hobbies would be a  hiker, exploring and enjoying the  peacefulness as they pace along the trails of  the forest.  The reasoning behind this impression is  because the earthy, woody base notes like  vetiver, tobacco, and sandalwood, gives a  sense of toughness and connection to  nature. These notes give images of someone  hiking on trails and/or engaging in outdoor  activities. The floral ingredients of violet  and ylang-ylang also show someone who  appreciates the beauty of nature. 

Weather Scent 

The weather I imagine encountering is cloudy, misty skies with the rain delicately drizzling and the soft whistle of the wind breezing through, carrying the fresh, moist scent. 

Cinematic Scents 

The scent makes me think of films that present the beauty of nature such as “Into the Wild”, “A River Runs Through It”, or classic disney films like “Bambi”. “Into the Wild” is a true story of Christopher McCandless, who donates all his possessions and goes to Alaska to live and explore deep into the wilderness. “A River Runs Through It” is a story about the relationship between two brothers and their upbringing in a religious family in Montana. It features stunning landscapes, which could align with the natural themes and scenic imagery. “Bambi” is a classic movie about a young deer’s journey to becoming the Great Prince of the Forest that guards its woodland creatures. It highlights the forest setting and natural themes present in the perfume profile.
