Actor Son Seok-gu's long-standing favorite perfume is Giorgio Armani Prive Vert Malachite.

Actor Son Seok-gu has garnered significant attention for his long-standing preference for a particular fragrance, Giorgio Armani Prive Vert Malachite, which he has reportedly used for five years. Known for cherishing items he likes for extended periods, Son Seok-gu revealed he received this perfume as a gift and has consistently used it due to his fondness for its scent.

The perfume, 'Vert Malachite' from Giorgio Armani's Prive line, is characterized by its luxurious green, pebble-shaped bottle. Its scent profile includes bitter orange and petitgrain in the top notes for a fresh citrus opening, followed by rich white floral middle notes of tuberose, ylang-ylang, and jasmine. The base notes settle into warm vanilla, amber, and woody accords. Son Seok-gu notably expressed his affection for this fragrance in a YouTube video with Choo Sung-hoon, describing it as a unique scent that is hard to put into words.

Bloggers describe Vert Malachite as having a soft floral scent that deviates from typical masculine fragrances, offering a distinctive charm that is neither overly sweet nor overtly feminine. They note an initial citrusy hint, quickly transitioning to a creamy white floral core, and eventually settling into a cozy, deep dry-down of vanilla and amber. The perfume is praised for its long-lasting nature and subtle sillage, making it more appealing when experienced up close.
