Celine Parade released in 2019, as part of the Haute Parfumarie line from French designer Celine. A citrus fragrance with notes of bergamot, neroli, vetiver, musk, and oakmoss. Celine Parade is an EDP, eau de parfum.
From the brand - "A musky, powdery cologne in keeping with the very codified ritual of male sartorial appearance. An attribute of the great dandies from the 19th century literature right up to the musicians on the pop and rock scene since the '60s. A return to the idea of transmission and a very French kind of perfumery. A parade under the sunlight of neroli and the radiance of bergamot, a carefree and sophisticated mix imparted by musk and oak moss, a feminine facet revealed in an addictive and powdery residual trail."
Fragrantica - "it is truly lovely. An aromatic citrus cologne, it is nuanced and nicely-balanced - there is no sharpness here. It is neroli-dominant, its soft, orangy floral coming up nicely green. Soft, woody vetiver complements it nicely, its aromatic grassiness marrying beautifully with the neroli. Smooth and high-quality, there is no astringent quality to the vetiver here. Parade becomes softly mossy as it develops, the oakmoss note subtly emerging, a seamless progression that gives a light chypre quality to the base. Clean musk keeps things soft and rounded throughout, its floral sweetness reminiscent of ambrette. It fades to a musky, mossy skin scent, featherlight and aromatic until final fade. Sillage and longevity are moderate at a push. It is a unisex spring/summer cologne. An effortlessly elegant cologne that is classic in style, Parade is expensive but seriously refined."
Fragrantica - "This is the most refined neroli I’ve tried and I love it! ? this would pair perfectly with loosely tousled hair, a crisp white linen shirt and straight blue jeans for a classically Parisian charm. Very unisex. I’m loving these completely nonchalant, unprovocative and clean Parisian vibes. Keep them coming Celine."
Fragrantica - "It is a smooth neroli vetiver fragrance that is perfectly unisex. Both my husband and I love this scent. What a masterpiece…. Simple but classic. Perfection to my olfactory nerve!"
