I have been under a cosmic magic spell of Pictura Fragrans Solar Wind. It’s citrus eruptions with the elemi adding a slice of spice unleashing their combined fiery energy, sending streams of charged particles racing through my senses as these solar winds collide with my skin. The fruity notes of raspberry and strawberry mix with air in a light dance with guava adding a slight bitter edge. The combustive power of the creamy richness of Sandalwood and musk, ignites a sense of experience and excitement that I cannot ignore.

Pictura Fragrans Solar Wind enfolds me in a cosmic hold, capturing the celestial journey of charged particles as they dance across the vastness of space from the Sun’s corona to Earth. From the first spritz onto my skin, I’m whisked away to a realm of vibrant energy—a sensory solar eruption bursting forth with bright citrus and tangy rhubarb. This opening isn’t just a scent; it’s the exhilarating pulse of the sun, mingling with the zest of elemi and a radiant berry accord that reflects the intricate, fiery interactions of the solar wind.

As Solar Wind unfolds, I find myself at the heart of this extraordinary journey. Guava, wild strawberry, and grapefruit soul notes create an uplifting fusion that releases warmth and joy. It feels like standing beneath the brilliance of an astonishing aurora, where vibrant hues collide, and energy flares all around. Each inhalation is a reminder of the active interplay between solar particles and planetary forces, an invitation to revel in the excitement of discovery and adventure.

The base notes bring me back to Earth, grounding the ethereal experience with the creamy richness of sandalwood, the softness of white musk, and a hint of luscious nectarine. Together these fragrances convey the lasting impact of solar winds on our atmosphere, anchoring the perfume in a sense of place and purpose. It’s like feeling the gentle sun’s warmth on my skin, reminding me of our profound connection with the cosmos. Solar Wind is a passionate “Extrait de parfum” that invites exploration into the profound and energetic phenomena birthed by our Sun. Each time I wear it, I’m reminded to welcome the beauty of life and the universe and celebrate the cosmic dance surrounding us daily. If you seek an experience that ignites the senses and sparks the spirit of adventure, Solar Wind is a radiant journey through the cosmos captured in a bottle. These active details connect me to the vast universe beyond. I am spellbound.

    Sandi’s review makes Solar Wind sound like a high-energy scent with a combination of bright, tart, juicy, fruity vibrancy paired with resinous elemi and a creamy, musky and lukewarm base. I’m interested in how the lively fruity notes fade into that smooth musky-woody base… NC, USA.

  • LeonardFlores says:

    The way this article describes the notes of Solar Wind is beautiful. The combination of citrus, berries, and warm sandalwood sounds amazing. I’m especially intrigued by the ‘soul notes’ of guava and strawberry – that tropical twist must be so uplifting! And the top notes of rhubarb and elemi add such a unique, sparkling contrast to the sweet raspberry. Then, to have that grounded by the creamy sandalwood and musk in the base, along with the honey and Spanish broom for sweetness… it sounds like a complex and truly captivating scent. This perfume giveaway is a great opportunity!

    I get a sense of cosmic space and nature interacting with scent.

    First off, the cap looks like the sun so the name is very on brand. Lots of solar and fruity notes to signal a beautiful sunny day out in nature where you experience fruits and flora all around you. It’s a fragrance that’s very easy-going and non-complicated to wear in any season. I love these types of scents because you don’t have to put a lot of thought into wearing them and they end up being the ones you wear the most. Solar wind it’s for a sunny day. I’m located in the USA

  • carrie_earle says:

    Sandi’s review of Solar Wind brings to mind an explosion of colorful fruits, with warmth from sandalwood and an airiness from the musk. Along with the bottle and label imagery, this seems all around captivating.

    Wow well this has a lot going on! I have not tried anything from this house before. I love the concept. I’m a big Space nerd. The fruits are surprising I would not have thought of that but it makes sense with the sun. The creamy sandalwood sounds like a perfect balance. I am in the USA. Thank you for the giveaway.

  • AleksCipri says:

    I recently had a chance to sample some of the Picture Fragrans offerings including Solar Wind. I agree with this review 100%. But saying that this fragrance is a “passionate” Extrait de parfum is an understatement. This fragrance is absurdly strong. From the first spray you literally feel like a rhubarb star exploded right next to your face. It is citrusy, sparkling, clean, and very very strong. After some time I also feel woody and musky notes which ground the fragrance. Finally, these bottles are just gorgeous! Cheers from Illinois, US.

  • Eris.can.swatch.kaos says:

    The desire to be sunsoaked but in a scent driven way has me intrigued. I’m not usually a fan of “solar” perfumes, but the way Sandi described this one, it has me yearning. What I do love is guava and strawberry, and I can imagine this fragrance becoming a favorite. I live in Oregon.

  • Brandon J says:

    Love the combination of notes to invoke that astrophysical elements. This seems unique fresh spicy fragrance. The review has tantalized Me.

  • wallygator88 says:

    Thanks for the lovely writeup Sandi!

    This fragrance sounds like the perfect scent to welcome warm weather. I really loved the imagery created using solar winds . I often imagine them to be filled with different hues, radiating out far away and having an electrifying effect.

    I imagine this fragrance to have a similar appeal with the vibrant fruity notes and the grounding base notes of sandalwood, musk ad honey, Two very different experiences.

    Cheers from WI, USA

    Wow this sounds like magic! The top sounds sound so delightful and energetic and the base notes sound so comforting. I loved this review and how the fragrance transports us to space and back. This house is completely new to me. Thank you for the draw. From the US.

    I love the sense of energy in Sandi’s review…though what most draws me to this fragrance is the note of rhubarb, which I love. I live in Oklahoma, USA.

  • Annika says:

    Beautiful presentation for this fragrance. I love the bottle and spherical topper and the image for solar wind really captures the inspiration for the scent; “a radiant journey through the cosmos captured in a bottle.” The citrus and fruits bring exuberance and joy while the sandalwood and musk provide grounding. Sounds lovely. MD, USA

  • Steven A says:

    My interest sparked by the unusual cast of notes and wondering what soul notes guava is. US

  • Jenna Park says:

    What got my attention first about this review is the combination of the sciences and arts. The description of “cosmetic journey, solar winds, and vibrant energy” reminds me of my college physics classes. The fruit notes with the base of sandlewood sounds like a scent I would wear. The description of the fragrance as well as the notes bring me to a time of fresh new beginnings. This is a scent I think I would truly love.

    What a beautiful review from Sandi, capturing the notes of a cosmic explosion, reminding one that we on Earth are all part of the cosmos and its mysteries. I love that there are so many fruit notes in Solar Wind. I wonder how the rhubarb and raspberry mingle together. Th notes that bring us back to earth sound wonderful.

  • peppermoon says:

    That sounds juicy and gorgeous, rhubarb, wild(!) strawberry, grapefruit, sandalwood honey and raspberry sounds like a great combo. I like the review’s imagery with the sun, it really conveys that bright, summery and energetic vibe! The contrast of bright/sharp notes and the creamy base notes sounds delcious. The cap is also very cool, reminds me of the recent red moon actually.

    I’m in the US and would love to join the giveaway please

  • mmerline says:

    I’m still never sure what to expect when a perfumer describes “solar citrus” in their fragrance, but Pictura Fragrans is pretty direct about it. The juicy, tangy fruit makes Solar Wind standout, with some guava as a point of distinction. This sounds like a blast to wear in summer heat.

  • Kensolfactoryodyssey says:

    Pictura Fragrans Solar Wind sounds like a fragrance that transcends mere scent—it’s an interstellar journey bottled, a sensory voyage through cosmic energy and celestial wonder. The idea of bright citrus, electrified by rhubarb and elemi, colliding with the lush sweetness of guava and wild strawberry is utterly magnetic. And then there’s the grounding warmth of sandalwood and musk, like the lingering glow of a sunbeam on the skin. Winning this fragrance would mean experiencing the thrill of solar winds firsthand, an olfactory reminder that adventure isn’t just out there in the universe—it’s right here, waiting to be worn.

  • libangeddy says:

    Woah these kinda of highly conceptual fragrances that transport you are hard to find these days. And usually for me they tend to only be the super earthy ones because fruity fragrances can come off generic, but this review is convincing me that this bottle manages to surpass all my expectations brilliantly!

  • Sherin Thomas says:

    Lovely review. I’m especially intrigued by the ‘soul notes’ of guava and strawberry – that tropical twist must be so uplifting! And the top notes of rhubarb and elemi add such a unique, sparkling contrast to the sweet raspberry. From PA,USA

  • Regis Monkton says:

    Pictura Fragrans Solar Wind sounds like one I would like. It seems like it would be a long-lasting, fruity, sexy chypre of a certain style, with very interesting notes, and I’d like to see what these unique notes are like in this kind of a fragrance. I live in MD, USA.

  • FragranceIsMe says:

    Solar Wind offers notes that have captured my attention. They appear to take one on an “out of this world” olfactive journey.
    It appears to be a bright and invigorating scent.

  • Jaime Viejo says:

    really interested in this fragrance as it has someone of my favorite fruity top notes such as grapefruit and red berries.
