What is Juliette Has A Gun Ode to Dullness?

Ode to Dullness is a musky floral fragrance from the Paris perfume house Juliette Has A Gun. The name is an ode to the ordinary: the scent is devoted to the beauty of everyday life and is a reminder that even ordinary moments hold something special. The aroma is calm and comforting, like a soft blanket on a rainy day. It has a floral start and a creamy finish that turns warm, stays close to the skin and works well for everyday wear.

Fragrance notes

• Top notes: star anise, freesia
• Heart notes: sandalwood
• Base notes: tonka bean, musk

At first you notice the spice of star anise and the floral brightness of freesia, which give the scent a fresh and soft opening. Then the creamy sandalwood comes forward and makes the aroma round. At the base sit tonka bean and musk, which give the scent a soothing and warm finish. The fragrance is minimalist and unusual: it does not shout but invites you to slow down and notice the small things around you.

Who Ode to Dullness suits

A musky floral scent suits people who want an everyday aroma that is soft, cosy and understated. Ode to Dullness is made for those who value calm moments and simple pleasures.

How to wear the perfume

1. Spray the scent on clean, dry skin: the wrists, the neck and behind the ear.
2. Start with two sprays. The aroma is soft and musky, so you can add a third on the chest if you like.
3. Let the scent dry on the skin without rubbing so that star anise, freesia and sandalwood open at their own pace.
4. Spray again whenever you want to feel the scent more clearly in the middle of the day.

The soft floral scent goes well with knitted jumpers, woollen scarves and a white shirt. The calm aroma also suits the morning, when you want to begin the day quietly, and the evening, when you want to end it with a cosy scent.
