Formulated by perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani, Pegasus Eau de Parfum is named after a winning racehorse from the 18th Century. As a bestseller, it's clear that the niche fragrance has inherited the same prestigious qualities of this thoroughbred with a refined selection of ingredients that aim to recreate the golden age of perfume refinery shown in King Louis XV's court. Thoroughbred horses and perfumery were two of his specialities and this fragrance encapsulates both of these qualities, along with class and regal sophistication. At first, Pegasus blends woody cypress with bergamot and vanilla-like heliotrope before balancing white floral jasmine with aromatic lavender and bitter almond in the heart. Finally, the sensual, cosy base of sweet vanilla, amber and sandalwood is unveiled. When this perfume develops on the skin, it emits a scent that reminds us of vanilla ice cream, giving this fragrance an undeniable nostalgic and comforting feel. However, this doesn't mean it lacks the elegance and style that fans of Parfums de Marly appreciate - it's still elegant and sophisticated. The pale golden bottle is eye-catching, and the unusual shape of the triangle lid and rounded square bottle matches the rest of the Parfums de Marly collection. Any fan will recognise the two equestrian statues emblematic of King Louis XV's Chevaux de Marly. We know we are not alone when we say that we love this fragrance. A bestseller for a reason, this unisex fougere style of scent has a powdery and almond element, which is cut with sensual sandalwood and amber. We think this Eau de Parfum is made for the gentleman who appreciates the quality, refinement and class. But, also for a woman who enjoys a more traditionally masculine scent.
