🇫🇷 French Perfumes!😶‍🌫 Long Lasting and Intense Scents!👍 Fraction of the Cost of Designer Fragrances

PRODUCT DETAILS

Evergreen comes as a 50 ml eau de parfum, built at roughly 20% fragrance oil. It costs €25, the same as every fragrance we make, whatever the original scent behind it. Orders from €49 come with free shipping, and delivery takes 2 to 5 working days.

Italian Cypress is sold as an eau de parfum, and Evergreen matches that concentration rather than a lighter eau de toilette. Longevity runs 5 to 7 hours, long lasting enough for a full working day, with moderate sillage that stays fairly close to the skin. It also sits well above a light eau de cologne, since that concentration would fade long before the moss base ever showed up.

French fragrance oils, handmade in small batches, vegan and never tested on animals. Not for you? Evergreen can be exchanged within 15 days.

NOTES

Top notes

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Evergreen is our perfume dupe of Italian Cypress by Tom Ford, made for anyone who wants that sharp, green, woody signature without the designer price tag. It opens on bergamot, galbanum, mandarin and peppermint, moves into a herbal heart of basil, nutmeg, patchouli and cypress, then settles into labdanum and moss, and it is meant to smell like the Tom Ford original from the first spray.

The cypress and galbanum combination is what people notice first, closer to a walk through a pine forest than a typical citrus fragrance. The opening is bright and a little bitter, then the basil and cypress take over within the hour, and the whole thing turns dry, green and understated rather than sweet. This is a fragrance with real presence, strong enough to notice without ever tipping into loud.

Evergreen is one of the fragrance dupe options built for people who compare perfumes side by side rather than just read a description. Reviews of the Tom Ford original mention that same forest-floor dryness we're chasing here, and the middle notes carry the dry, green thread all the way from the herbal heart into the moss base.

Perfume concentration

EDT, EDP or EXDP - what you are actually buying

The difference between these labels is not quality but how much perfume oil sits in the bottle. That decides how long the scent stays on your skin and how far it travels.

EDT Eau de Toilette 5 to 15% perfume oil

The lightest of the three. It opens fresh and fast, but fades after three to five hours. Pleasant in heat and at the office, as long as you top it up during the day.

Our choiceEDP Eau de Parfum ~20% perfume oil

The middle ground that became the standard. It lasts six to eight hours, one spray in the morning is enough, and the scent stays recognisable into the evening without filling the room.

EXDP Extrait de Parfum 20 to 40% perfume oil

The densest form, worn in drops, and it can last over ten hours. In return it loses that easy opening, and the price per bottle climbs the most.

Why we chose EDP

Every Chez Pierre perfume is made in Eau de Parfum concentration, with 20% perfume oil. That is not by accident.

An eau de toilette would mean carrying the bottle with you and refreshing the scent after lunch. An extrait would push the price up, and only someone counting hours would notice the gain. EDP sits exactly in between: one spray in the morning carries the whole working day, and the scent opens and develops instead of settling on the skin at once.

So we don't make lighter and pricier versions of the same scent. We make one, in the concentration where that scent works best.

How a perfume is measured

Longevity, projection and sillage

Three things describe every perfume, whatever the price or the name on the bottle. Once you separate them, it is easier to say what you actually want from a scent.

01

Longevity

How many hours the scent stays on skin

Measured from the moment you spray to the moment you can no longer smell it up close. It depends on the concentration, but also on your skin: on dry skin every perfume lasts less, so a dab of unscented cream before spraying helps.

02

Projection

How far it travels around you

Strongest in the first hour, it tells you how much space the scent takes up. Big projection is great for evenings and colder days, while at the office or in a meeting it usually gets in the way more than it helps.

03

Sillage

The trail you leave behind

Pronounced „see-yazh“, it means the trail a scent leaves behind you. It is the reason someone turns around as you pass. A perfume can last a long time and still leave a small trail, and the other way round.

Strong is not the same as good. A perfume with huge projection quickly tires both you and the people around you, while one without any trail stays your own private thing.

That is why every one of our perfume descriptions says how it wears, not only how it smells.

CHOOSE YOUR LIFESYLE

Evergreen

Inspired by: Italian Cypress, Tom Ford

Evergreen works best from spring through summer, when the green, herbal opening has room to feel fresh rather than heavy. It suits the office easily and holds up just as well outdoors.

It is built as a unisex fragrance, green and dry rather than sweet, so it wears as naturally for him as for her, closer to a scent for people who prefer plants over florals.

Winter is really the only season where it struggles, since the green, herbal opening wants air and light rather than heavy layers. Neither strictly masculine nor feminine by design, it suits men and women equally, closer to a walk outside than a bottle of cologne. Most men who try it end up keeping it in the everyday rotation rather than saving it for one season.

Choose our Inspiration

Tom Ford is an American designer house that turned fragrance into a genuine luxury category, and Italian Cypress arrived in 2008 under Tom Ford as part of the Private Blend line the house built its niche reputation on. It sits closer to niche than mainstream designer perfumery, sold mostly through select Tom Ford counters rather than every high street shop.

Most people just call it Italian Cypress or Cypress, and its green, woody signature has made it one of the fragrances and scents every list of perfume dupes for Tom Ford ends up mentioning, ours included; if it smells like the original in the bottle, the list has done its job.

Perfumes from the Private Blend line rarely turn up in casual reviews, since most people only encounter them at a Tom Ford counter, which is part of why so few reviews of Italian Cypress exist outside dedicated fragrance forums.

Why choose us?

Evergreen is our affordable alternative to Tom Ford Italian Cypress, one of several Tom Ford dupes we make. It is our own blend, not a clone stamped from the same mould, made with French fragrance oils and filled by hand in small batches to smell similar to the original.

We only make it as an eau de parfum, because that concentration is what carries this kind of green, woody accord properly. If it does not feel similar to what you remember, send it back within 15 days and we will swap it.

It's one of a handful of legitimate alternatives to a Private Blend release, priced nothing like the luxury original, and built the same masculine-leaning way whether you think of it as a clone chaser or just a fan of the original composition. Among the fragrances we make, this is the one that wears closest to actual moss and pine rather than a citrus stand-in, and it stays a genuine alternative rather than a loud imitation.
