Chypre Fulminare

Chypre Fulminare is a bold, modern chypre with a deeply animalic and incense-driven character that feels both vintage-inspired and refined. The opening bursts with bright citrus and ylang-ylang, but quickly recedes to reveal a dense core of incense, black pepper, leather, and oakmoss. The base carries a rich, smoky complexity enhanced by castoreum and ambergris, creating an evocative, almost medicinal depth that some find jarring. Longevity is exceptional—lasting over 12 hours—with moderate to strong projection that lingers close to the skin yet maintains a clear presence. It favors cooler months, with strong appeal in autumn and winter, though it can shift to daytime wear depending on the spray intensity. The scent is masterfully crafted, with naturally sourced ingredients that feel authentic and distinct, placing it in the league of elite chypres like Antaeus or Gravitas. It achieves a rare balance—grounded in classic chypre structure but uniquely modern and wearable.
