If you swooned at her soulful extraits but though their intensity was too much of a commitment in the morning, now’s the time to give in. Vero Kern has re-orchestrated her blends into eaux de parfum: the different concentration called, she explains, for a slightly different formula.
And if a fragrance ever needed taming, it is Vero’s wild, dusky, brooding Onda, as close to an alchemical potion as a modern perfume is ever likely to get. In the eau de parfum, the ginger, vetiver, honey and patchouli still simmer with earthy sensuality, but the composition gains an airiness, a sense of space that make the notes an easier fit for daytime wear. The overtly animalic notes have been replaced by the equally animalic, but brighter passion fruit. Don’t be fooled: the leather-clad femme fatale hasn’t come over from the dark side of the forest. But she’s just cracked a smile.
