Summer 24

Summer 24 by Ffern is a Aromatic Spicy fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Summer 24 was launched in 2024. The nose behind this fragrance is Elodie Durande. Top notes are Fennel, Blood Orange, Grapefruit, Olibanum, Green Mandarin and Sicilian Lemon; middle notes are Coriander, Bay essence, Indonesian Nutmeg, Patchouli, Calabrian bergamot, Rum, Champaca and Tunisian Neroli; base notes are Hay, Haitian Vetiver, Siam Benzoin, Cistus Incanus and Virginian Cedar. High blue skies. Meadows, sweet and honeyed. A valley shaded by orange groves. Water pouring from a terracotta jug. Time passing, slow and easy.For Summer 24, we sought to work with the hourly evolution of natural oils, capturing the scent of an entire day amongst the Tuscan hills, as it gently simmers and unfolds. And so we awaken to citrus top notes - lemons and blood oranges, the oil itself harvested from Sicily’s lush groves. To achieve a culinary opening accord that is distinctly Tuscan in flavour, we paired these fruits with spiced bay leaf and fennel seed, sweet and herbaceous.Imagining the morning sun glancing off cool, fresh water, we added pink peppercorn, instantly clean and sparkling.Noon comes, the height of the day, and with it the scent of herbs and flowers, giving out their best. The star is red champaca, a new ingredient for us. This member of the magnolia family has beautiful bright flowers, whose scent captures our deep, plush midday fragrance with its shades of green tea, champagne, honey and nectar. As we move into the afternoon, coriander seed, patchouli and nutmeg bring a dry, herbal accord - a bare foot pressing upon golden meadow grasses.Evening settles. The earth is baked and cracked, the light mellow. Woodier notes join with the brown eyed rock rose, their heavier molecules reducing the volatility of the mixture and drawing out the lighter notes - so that echoes of the day’s fresh citrus acidity and sunny florals follow us long into the night.This gentle progression of notes, quietening and coming to the fore, is a unique feature of natural perfumery, enabled by the immense molecular complexity of natural ingredients. This very same complexity explains the subtle ways in which the scent will adapt to the wearer, and age in the bottle - a path dictated by the particular combinations of light and temperature that your fragrance experiences. We hope you find joy in this process.
