Blackberry & Bay
Tart blackberry juice, sharper than jam, laid over a crushed bay leaf. It dries down into vetiver and dry wood, which keeps it wearable at a desk all day.
Dear Polly
Pear and blackcurrant, jammy rather than crisp, over a musky woody base with pink pepper keeping it from turning heavy. An unashamedly sweet fruity scent and a very recognisable one — the Vilhelm most people meet first. Wearable year-round, but never discreet.
