Parfums De Marly Percival Eau De Parfum

Parfums de Marly Percival Eau de Parfum was launched in 2018 and created by perfumer Hamid Merati-Kashani. This aromatic fougère stands out within the Parfums de Marly collection for its fresh, vibrant profile that blends crowd-pleasing appeal with niche refinement. Inspired by the elegance and nobility of classical equestrian tradition, Percival captures clean sophistication with a modern masculine touch.

The fragrance opens with a crisp and lively medley of bergamot, mandarin, and pink pepper. Bergamot and mandarin bring a juicy, sparkling citrus brightness, while pink pepper adds a gently spicy nuance that introduces a layer of aromatic energy. This opening is fresh, invigorating, and instantly versatile—perfect for any season or setting.

At the heart, a refined blend of lavender, geranium, cardamom, coriander, and cinnamon offers a complex aromatic character. Lavender provides a calming herbal core, softened by floral geranium and given warmth and intrigue through cardamom and cinnamon. The result is a balanced interplay between freshness and subtle spice, giving Percival both clarity and depth.

The base is a warm, subtly sweet drydown of ambroxan, tonka bean, balsam fir, musk, and woody notes. Ambroxan imparts a radiant, almost marine-amber note that gives the scent its strong projection and modern signature. Tonka bean softens the edges with a creamy sweetness, while balsam fir and woods add clean earthiness. Musk ties it all together with a smooth, long-lasting finish.
