Ilé Olomu Verdant
Green, citrusy, woody, aromatic, and softly balsamic.
Top: Green Plantain Accord, Bitter Orange, Lemon Zest
Heart: Lavender, Jasmine Petals, Juniper Leaf
Base: Cedarwood, Amber Woods, Sandalwood, Violet Accord
Verdant centers an unusual green plantain accord, sharpening it with bitter orange and lemon zest before lavender, jasmine, and juniper leaf add an aromatic floral lift. Cedarwood, sandalwood, amber woods, and violet ground the composition in a smooth woody base, keeping the fragrance fresh and green while giving it enough depth to feel substantial rather than fleeting.
Co-created with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm in Zürich, Switzerland. Verdant is presented by Ilé Olomu as the 2026 Art & Olfaction Awards People’s Choice Winner.
