Questions & Answers
QWho is Primitif for, and when should you wear it?
Primitif is marketed toward women, at its best in fall and winter.
QWhat makes Primitif distinctive?
What sets Primitif apart is its use of civet and aldehydes: notes found in only under 1% of the fragrances in our library. Overall it reads as powdery, musk and earthy.
