Fucking Fabulous

Lavender, leather and vanilla. Inspired by Fabulous.

An aromatic lavender-sage opening with a bitter almond edge, that settles into leather and vanilla. Unusual and self-assured — a fragrance that stands out without being sweet.

How it develops

Lavender and clary sage open aromatic and herbal, clean and a little hay-like — a classic men's opening that soon becomes something else. The heart is where it gains its character: leather, smooth and dry, alongside bitter almond, vanilla and orris setting a powdery, marzipan-like sweetness against it. The base is leather again, deeper now, with tonka bean for the warmth, cashmeran and white woods for a soft, musky dryness and amber for the glow. Lavender on top, leather underneath, and the almond holds those two together.

Who it's for, and when

Unisex, wearable for him and her. Autumn, winter and evenings; in spring and summer with one spray. Not as a first perfume. Love leather but want it darker and with tobacco, see B-250. Looking for lavender and iris with suede instead of leather, P-10 is the softer neighbour.

How to wear it

One to two sprays on the neck, on moisturised skin. Don't rub. More than two is for outdoors — indoors it quickly becomes too much for the people around you.
