Vilhelm Parfumerie is a Swedish niche house founded by Vilhelm Malmberg with a focus on uncomplicated, well-crafted fragrances that avoid pretension. The brand's approach emphasizes quality raw materials and clean composition, positioning itself as a more grounded alternative to maximalist niche perfumery.

Basilico & Fellini opens with bright basil and pitahaya, creating a green-fruity contrast that feels both herbaceous and slightly exotic. The heart develops with fig and violet, softening the herbal edge while adding gentle sweetness and a powdery quality. The base layers in green grass, hay, and vetiver, grounding the composition with earthy, almost pastoral notes that prevent the fragrance from becoming one-dimensional. The overall effect is a green aromatic with genuine substance, balancing fresh herbal notes against an unexpectedly grounded, naturalistic base.

This fragrance suits anyone seeking a green scent that doesn't rely on sharp citrus or synthetic freshness. It works particularly well for spring and summer, though the earthy base gives it enough weight for transitional seasons. The composition appeals to those who appreciate naturalistic scents with botanical credibility. Basilico & Fellini aligns with The Tactician, The Aristocrat, and The Homesteader profiles.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Basil
Basil
Sweet, spicy, and vividly herbal, basil has a green freshness with slightly anise-like and peppery facets that make it more complex than most culinary herbs. In perfumery it adds a lively, Mediterranean quality and pairs beautifully with citrus and woody notes. An underused note that rewards those who seek it out.
Pitahaya
Pitahaya
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Fig
Fig
Green, creamy, and milky with a slightly earthy underpinning, fig is a fruit note that doubles as a green and woody note depending on whether you emphasize the fruit or the leaf and wood. The milky quality of fig sap gives it an unusual creaminess that pairs beautifully with musks and light woods.
Violet
Violet
Sweet, powdery, and faintly green, violet sits between floral and earthy in a way that feels distinctly old-world glamorous. The leaf and the flower smell quite different: the flower is sugary and delicate, while violet leaf is fresh and slightly vegetal. Together they create a note that feels both nostalgic and current.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Green Grass
Green Grass
Hay
Hay
Warm, sweet, and slightly smoky, the scent of dried grass and summer fields. Hay in perfumery reads as coumarin-adjacent: warm, powdery, and nostalgic, with an honest, agricultural quality that grounds sweeter notes. It adds the smell of the countryside to orientals and woods, making them feel warmer and more organic.
Vetiver
Vetiver
Earthy, smoky, and complex, vetiver root is extracted from a grass native to India and has a scent that is simultaneously rooty, woody, and slightly lemony. It's one of perfumery's great base notes: tenacious, unisex, and endlessly adaptable. A fragrance built around vetiver feels grounded and deeply confident.
