For Her
The fragrance in Narciso Rodriguez For Her Eau de Toilette Gift Set is quiet and skin-warm: a musk heart with osmanthus and orange blossom laid over it, fruity and clean at the opening and powdery by the end of the day. It is a fragrance with very little distance between its opening and its finish.
Osmanthus gives the apricot-like floral note and orange blossom the fresh white-floral lift, and together they make the first minutes green and bright. Musk follows and then stays, while amber and patchouli close the composition with warmth and an earthy depth that keeps the powder from turning sweet. The rosiness people notice in it is an impression made by musk and amber together, not a note of its own.
For Her launched in 2003, composed by Christine Nagel and Francis Kurkdjian, and it was the first fragrance from the house. Narciso Rodriguez had shown his first collection under his own label in Milan in 1997, women's ready-to-wear; he was born and raised in Newark, New Jersey to Cuban parents and won CFDA Womenswear Designer of the Year in 2002 and 2003, the first to win it twice in a row. Every scent the house makes is built around musc.
It is long lasting with moderate sillage, so it lasts well while sitting close to the skin. Every season suits it, as do casual clothes, professional wear and a night out, the florals making it usable in heat and the amber and patchouli keeping it wearable in cold. This one is boxed as a gift set.
