Created by Liz Moores
Dryad by Papillon Artisan Perfumes is a Woody Chypre fragrance for women and men. Dryad was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Liz Moores. Top notes are Galbanum, Tarragon, Clary Sage, Thyme, Bitter Orange, Citron and Bergamot; middle notes are Narcissus, Orris Root, Costus, Apricot, Orange Blossom and Lavender; base notes are Oakmoss, Vetiver, Peru Balsam, Benzoin and Styrax. "As vibrant emerald Galbanum weaves with the delicate flesh of Bergamot, the nomadic wanderings of Dryad begin. Beneath jade canopies, sweet-herbed Narcissus nestles with gilded Jonquil. Shadows of Apricot and Cedrat morph radiant greens to a soft golden glow. Earthed within the ochre roots of Benzoin, heady Oakmoss entwines with deep Vetiver hues. And at its heart, the slick skin of Costus beckons you further into the forest..." - a note from the brand.
