Purple Rain

Purple Rain draws its inspiration from the audacious, gender-fluid, flamboyant Glam Rock aesthetic of the 1970s while paying homage to Prince's massive impact on the world of music.

This creation is also Sylhouette’s own reflection on the legendary song "Purple Rain," one of the most iconic love ballads of the 20th century, a tale of a beautiful yet bittersweet romance where parting becomes the most tender choice for two souls yearning for their own happiness. It's built around an exquisite central ingredient: dark aged patchouli oil, a material infused with an unmistakable sense of freedom and a wild, unrestrained spirit, echoing the cultural and musical movements of the 1970s. It intertwines with the androgynous softness of crème de violette, rose, violet and a delicate powdery lipstick accord, while deeper shadows unfold through cocoa absolute and supple suede, adding an extreme, romantic darkness to the composition. Accents of smoke and liqueur drift through the fragrance like quiet symbols of sorrow, distance, and the faint, tender burn of a love slowly learning how to let go.

Passionately romantic and richly moving, Purple Rain is an unforgettable homage to a one-of-a-kind song, musician, and legacy.
