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.

Summary

Ilé Olomu Verdant Eau de Parfum turns green plantain into a distinctive green-woody fragrance with citrus, aromatics, florals, and soft woods. Bitter orange and lemon zest sharpen the plantain accord, while lavender, jasmine, and juniper leaf add an airy aromatic middle. Cedarwood, amber woods, sandalwood, and violet provide a smooth grounded base. The house uses a 25% perfume concentration and describes all-day wear, supporting an 8+ hour expectation with individual variation. Verdant works well from spring through fall for daytime, work, and social wear, particularly for shoppers drawn to fresh green fragrances with an unusual gourmand idea.

About the Brand

Ilé Olomu is a fragrance house founded by Bawo Ijirigho, drawing on West African heritage, family memory, and storytelling. The name uses Ilé, Yoruba for “house,” as a deliberate expression of cultural identity, while Olomu references Ijirigho’s family legacy through Nana Olomu. The house develops its fragrances in Zürich with perfumer Andreas Wilhelm, pairing culturally rooted inspiration with polished contemporary perfumery. Across Milora, Verdant, and Atalẹ Gold, familiar materials and memories—cocoa, plantain, ginger, florals, woods, and spice—are translated into expressive compositions that connect personal heritage with modern fine fragrance.
