Neo-adaptive scent chemistry
NEO opens sharp and lifted. Yuzu and aldehydes bring citrus brightness, green tea and bamboo soften it into something quieter, and cedar with transparent musk creates a soft, woody finish.
This genderless extrait de parfum is formulated at 25% fragrance concentration with time-released notes designed to unfold gradually. ARTIFACT’s neo-adaptive approach centres the wearer, allowing the scent to develop with your skin chemistry, temperature and environment.
For those drawn to fresh citrus, green tea and soft woods, NEO offers a personal signature without masculine or feminine labels. The 50ml bottle is the full-size expression, ready to become part of your daily ritual.

How neo-adaptive works
Most perfume is finished in the bottle. Ours is finished on you.
Each fragrance is built as three time-released layers at 30% concentrate. The layers are engineered to respond to skin temperature and pH, so the same bottle settles differently on every wearer and keeps shifting across the day instead of fading flat.
Reads your skin
Volatile top notes lift fast and take on the warmth and pH of the wearer. This is where the same scent starts to diverge between two people.
Top notes lift fast and pick up your warmth and pH. Two people, same bottle, already different.
Settles into you
Encapsulated heart notes release gradually, driven by body heat. The fragrance deepens rather than dropping off, and it shifts as your day does.
Heart notes release slowly with body heat, so it deepens instead of dropping off.
Stays yours
Fixative-heavy base notes bind to skin and hold. What remains by evening is specific to your chemistry, not the bottle.
