Orto Parisi Viride
A cultivated garden, robustly green
Viride, from 2014, is described by Orto Parisi as having a robust green character, personified by a Yemeni man in his traditional floral crown. The brand compares it to a garden that has been planted, fertilised and cultivated. It publishes no notes, so the garden is a picture to hold in mind and the planting list stays private.

How it unfolds
-
A garden with a history
The house ties Viride to a garden that has been planted, fertilised and cultivated, growing up from the deepest roots of herbal plants. That echoes Orto Parisi's own beginning, a garden that belonged to the founder's grandfather. It is a picture of work and patience, and it is the only guide the brand gives.
-
The crown
The brand's image of the character is a Yemeni man in his traditional floral crown. Its words for it are herbal plants and a floral crown, set against a robust, green character. We pass those words on as the brand's own and do not turn them into a list of ingredients.
-
Try it in the open
Since the notes are undisclosed, try Viride on skin, first indoors and then somewhere with open air, and compare the two impressions. Let it settle for a while each time, because the brand's idea is of something grown rather than made all at once.
Wearing it
When, who and why
Wearing Viride
One or two sprays of this Parfum are a good measure, on the neck or the chest. A garden image tends to point to warmer months, but the brand says nothing on the subject. It names no season or occasion, so let your own skin have the last word.
Who might like it
Viride has no gender stated by the brand and is treated as unisex here. It may appeal to people who like a natural, grown character and a story rooted in plants, and who can accept an undisclosed formula. It asks for some trust, since the brand offers only its garden and its crown.
Why choose Orto Parisi Viride
Viride is one of the house's original perfumes of 2014, made by Alessandro Gualtieri, who signs as The Nose. The cap is tumbled gold with guaiacum, a dense, oily timber from Ecuador used on sailing boats, finished by hand. It has a clear picture of itself, even without a formula.

Questions
Frequently asked
What are the notes?
Nothing is published; the house treats the notes as the perfumer's secret. For Viride the brand offers herbal plants, a floral crown and a robust green character as its idea; we add nothing beyond that.
What is guaiacum?
On the brand's page it is a dense, oily timber from Ecuador that is used on sailing boats. Here it is part of the cap, set into tumbled gold, and it has no stated role in the perfume itself.
What concentration and size is it?
A Parfum in a 50 ml bottle. Because it is concentrated, one or two sprays are enough to begin with, and you can add more once you know how it wears.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
