The Story
Why it exists.
The beginning
Simurg takes its name from the mythical Persian bird, a creature of legend associated with wisdom, rebirth, and eternity. The 2025 release from MyLance's Grandeur Collection carries that symbolism into scent, giving the fragrance a distinctive identity. Part of a seven-piece collection of exclusive perfumes, Simurg offers a combination of fruit, citrus, saffron, florals, and warm woods. Its name and note profile invite closer attention: a bright opening gives way to jasmine, rose, muguet, sandalwood, amber, and vanilla. The result is a fragrance that can be explored through its contrasts, from peach and lemon to the softer floral center and warm base.
What makes this composition worth attention is the tension between its airy florals and its dense, golden base. The heart reads like a classical white floral, jasmine, rose, and muguet, while the saffron-tinted opening adds color and spice. Peach and lemon contribute a sweet fruit impression and a bright citrus lift, followed by the softer floral notes. As the scent develops, the composition moves between freshness, green sweetness, resinous warmth, and smooth wood. The contrast between these notes gives Simurg its character, with saffron connecting the opening to the richer heart and base.
The evolution
Simurg opens with a bright combination of peach, lemon, and saffron. The fruit and citrus notes create a lively first impression, while saffron adds a warm, golden layer beneath them. Jasmine becomes more apparent as the fragrance develops, joined by rose and muguet. Muguet contributes a clean floral sweetness, while rose gives the heart a soft, rounded texture. The base is built around sandalwood, amber, and vanilla, adding warmth and a smooth finish. Together, the notes create a progression from bright fruit and citrus to floral richness and warm woods, with community ratings supporting generally above-average longevity and performance.
Cultural impact
Simurg arrives as part of MyLance's Grandeur Collection, a group of seven exclusive perfumes. Its name draws on the mythical Persian bird, a legendary creature associated with wisdom, rebirth, and eternity. Wearers describe it as performance-heavy, with generally above-average longevity and sillage. Some note a similarity to Baccarat Rouge 540 in its sweet-woody profile, though Simurg is also described as more floral and less airy. Its accessible price and strong community presence have helped it attract attention, while its combination of saffron, florals, fruit, citrus, and warm woods gives it a distinctive place within the collection.
