THE RUSH

Argos – Birth of Venus | Floral Gourmand

🌊 Born from the sea. Worshipped by the world. Now in a bottle. Birth of Venus by Argos is a fragrance inspired by Sandro Botticelli’s immortal Renaissance masterpiece — and by the goddess herself. Venus (Aphrodite to the Greeks), born fully grown from the foam of the sea, goddess of love, beauty, and passion, worshipped for her gifts of fertility, abundance, and protection. Botticelli painted her luminous and ethereal, drawing all attention to herself. This fragrance does the same.

A divine, multi-layered floral gourmand of extraordinary complexity — this is a fragrance that commands a room, turns heads, and lingers in memory long after you’ve left.

Opening: Bright Bergamot, Juicy Peach, Delicious Grapefruit, Orange, Sweet Lavender — a luminous, sun-drenched citrus-fruit opening that evokes the goddess emerging from the sea — radiant, fresh, and utterly captivating.

Heart: Narcissus, Jasmine Sambac, Rose, Iris, Violet, Raspberry, Chocolate — a lush, opulent floral heart of extraordinary richness, where the heady beauty of jasmine sambac and rose meets the cool elegance of iris and violet, warmed by the indulgent sweetness of raspberry and chocolate.

Base: Warming Amber, Earthy Vetiver, Cedarwood, Mysore Sandalwood, Cashmere Wood, Labdanum — a warm, sensual foundation of rare Mysore sandalwood and cashmere wood that anchors this heavenly composition with quiet, enduring beauty.
