About the Perfumer

Painting That Reflects Floating Liis

The Demon Seated by Mikhail Vrubel

The Demon Seated by Mikhail Vrubel, 1890

This evocative painting captures the complex, mysterious aura of the fragrance. The rich textures and contemplative mood mirror the fragrance's depth and striking presence, while the bold use of color reflects its distinctive character.

Classic Song That Matches Floating Liis

Song album cover

"Rhapsody in Blue" by George Gershwin, 1924

Like Floating Liis, Gershwin's masterpiece seamlessly blends contrasting elements into a harmonious whole. The composition's elegant transitions between dynamic and serene passages mirror the fragrance's evolution on skin. Just as this scent brings together traditional and modern elements, "Rhapsody in Blue" merges classical structure with jazz improvisation, creating something sophisticated yet accessible—an auditory parallel to this fragrance's olfactory journey.

Character Profile

Floating Liis is Ideal For

The Dreamer Who Wears Floating Liis

Archetype: The Innocent

The person who cherishes Floating Liis—a fragrance of soft vanilla, delicate lily, and ethereal musk—is most closely aligned with the Innocent, an archetype defined by purity, optimism, and an unshakable belief in beauty. They move through life with a quiet grace, untouched by cynicism, as if the world were still an undiscovered garden. Yet beneath their serene exterior lies a tension: the Innocent’s greatest strength is their idealism, but their shadow is naivety—a refusal to see the world’s harsher edges until they cut too deep.

A Life of Quiet Wonder

Their tastes are refined but never ostentatious. They prefer linen over silk, muted pastels over bold colors, and the whisper of poetry over the clamor of debate. Their home is a sanctuary—sparsely decorated, with sunlight filtering through sheer curtains, fresh flowers always in a vase, and well-worn books stacked neatly on a wooden table. They are drawn to art that evokes nostalgia, like Impressionist paintings or the faint melody of a music box.

Philosophically, they believe in the inherent goodness of people, though they rarely voice this aloud. Their faith is not religious but spiritual—a quiet conviction that kindness ripples outward, that small gestures matter. They dislike conflict, not out of cowardice, but because they genuinely struggle to comprehend malice. Their values are simple but unwavering: honesty, gentleness, and the preservation of beauty in all forms.

Relationships: A Delicate Balance

In love, they are tender but guarded. They do not give their heart easily, but once they do, it is with a quiet intensity. They seek a partner who mirrors their idealism—someone who still finds wonder in the world, who understands that holding hands in silence can be as profound as a declaration of love. Their friendships are few but deep, built on years of shared glances, unspoken understandings, and the comfort of simply being together.

Yet their relationships also reveal their shadow. They can be passive, avoiding difficult conversations in favor of harmony. When betrayed, they do not rage—they retreat, wounded by the realization that not everyone shares their purity of intent. Their optimism, though beautiful, can blind them to the complexities of human nature, leaving them vulnerable to disappointment.

The Shadow of the Innocent

Their greatest flaw is their reluctance to face darkness—both in the world and within themselves. They suppress anger, dismiss their own needs to maintain peace, and sometimes romanticize reality to the point of delusion. When life inevitably disappoints them, they do not adapt—they grieve, as if the world itself has broken a sacred promise.

But this very fragility is also their power. Their refusal to harden makes them a rare light in a jaded world. They remind others of forgotten joys—the scent of rain on pavement, the warmth of a shared silence, the quiet dignity of choosing kindness even when it is not returned.

A Life Well-Lived

They will never be the loudest voice in the room, nor the most ambitious. But in their presence, others feel lighter, as if the weight of the world has momentarily lifted. They are the keeper of small graces, the one who leaves a handwritten note in a loved one’s coat pocket, who stops to watch the sunset even when they’re late.

Their life is not one of grand conquests, but of quiet revolutions—against bitterness, against despair. And when they wear Floating Liis, it is not merely a fragrance, but an affirmation: The world is still beautiful. I choose to believe.
