Velixir Icarus (release 2024) is an ode to freedom and the urge for the unattainable; a Woody Aromatic fragrance that lifts the senses to unprecedented heights. This perfume is designed for men and women who love a scent that shines with modern molecular technology and razor-sharp natural extracts. With a sparkling opening of pear and Calabrian bergamot, Icarus offers a fragrance experience that is both weightless and extremely powerful.
The fragrance opens with a clear, uplifting impulse and transforms on the skin into a refined sillage of precious woods and molecular amber. The result is a perfume that creates an aura of ambition, prestige, and modern luxury around you.
The character of Icarus is defined by an exquisitely balanced and high-quality fragrance pyramid that stands for maximum projection and an unforgettable, clean presence:
Top Notes: A vital and refreshing start with Pear, Calabrian Bergamot, and Mandarin. The juicy pear gives the citrus notes a modern texture and a radiant opening that immediately sharpens the senses.
Heart Notes: In the heart, the fragrance reveals its aromatic power with Orange Blossom, Georgywood, and Ginger. The razor-sharp ginger gives the perfume an energetic kick, while Georgywood provides a clean, woody elegance.
Base Notes: The impressive finish rests on a solid foundation of Musk, Ambrofix™, Akigalawood, and Cedar. The combination of Akigalawood (with its vibrant peppery wood notes) and Ambrofix™ creates a radiant sillage that remains present for hours like a precious signature.
Due to the combination of juicy fruit and vibrant molecular wood notes, Icarus responds beautifully to the natural warmth of the skin. For the best projection and optimal sillage, we recommend applying the perfume to the 'pulse points': wrists, behind the ears, and on the neck. This allows the layered nuances of ginger and cedar to gradually release throughout the day.
This perfume is the ultimate "all-day signature scent" that excels in versatility; from a business meeting to an adventurous evening. It is a fragrance that immediately exudes class and progressiveness. For optimal longevity of the 100ml bottle, we recommend storing the perfume in a dark, cool place.
Choosing Icarus means choosing a long-lasting and layered perfume from Velixir's innovative collection. It distinguishes itself through the use of high-quality molecules such as Ambrofix™ and Akigalawood, which ensures unprecedented clarity and stability, giving it a unique position within modern niche perfumery as a fragrance that truly gives wings.
The Velixir bottle is an excellent investment for the discerning user looking for a fragrance that effortlessly combines freshness, sensuality, and stability. Thanks to the high quality of the ingredients, the sillage remains impressively rich without ever becoming too heavy. This makes the perfume ideally suited for those who appreciate a fragrance that stands for absolute class and an unforgettable, radiant aura.
Absolutely! All perfumes at FragranceGems are 100% original and authentic. We work exclusively with trusted suppliers and official distributors. Every product comes in its original packaging and we guarantee the authenticity of every bottle. You get exactly the same quality as in a perfume store, just more affordable.
We're a student-run business with a mission: making quality perfume accessible to everyone. By working with small margins, low overhead costs, and smart purchasing, we're able to keep our prices low. We don't have expensive storefronts or big marketing budgets - we let our products and happy customers speak for themselves!
A sample (decant) is a smaller amount of perfume (usually 2-10ml) that's perfect for testing a scent first. The full size is the original bottle as made by the manufacturer. Both contain exactly the same scent and quality - samples are ideal if you want to try a perfume before investing in a full bottle!
A 100ml bottle contains around 1200-1500 sprays. With average use (2-3 sprays per day), that lasts 1.5 to 2 years! That makes perfume very affordable per use. For special occasions, it naturally lasts even longer.
Orders are processed within 2-3 business days via PostNL or DHL. You'll always receive a track & trace code. Shipping takes 3-5 days. Total delivery typically takes 5-8 days.
Due to the hygienic nature of perfumes, we unfortunately can't accept returns on opened products. That's why we always recommend trying a sample first before ordering a full size. That way you'll know for sure the scent suits you! Unopened products can be returned within 14 days.
Store your perfume in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid the bathroom due to humidity and temperature fluctuations. With good storage, perfume easily stays good for 3-5 years, often even longer. Always keep the cap tightly closed to prevent oxidation.
