Purpureum

Purpureum is part of the Fragments by NVC collection from Neela Vermeire Creations. Its name derives from the Latin word for purple or dark red and represents visual fragments of purple and mystical warmth. Within the collection, it stands as the richest and most opulent creation.

The fragrance opens with pepper, liquorice and dried fig. Spicy, warm and slightly sweet, the introduction immediately creates an atmosphere of richness and intrigue.

Magnolia appears in the heart alongside dark rum, coffee, cacao and immortelle. These notes create a velvety gourmand character that feels sophisticated rather than sugary.

As the fragrance develops, brown tobacco, tonka bean, labdanum, myrrh and leather add depth, warmth and sensuality. The result is a luxurious fragrance that wraps around the wearer like a rich velvet cloak.

Purpureum is dark, comforting and elegant, balancing gourmand richness with leather, resins and tobacco to create a truly memorable niche fragrance.
