100BON Mirage du Desert is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2018, created by Serge de Oliveira. Mirage du Desert opens with Carrot Seeds, Cardamom, and Fig, settles into a heart of Papyrus, Sandalwood, Iris, and Frankincense, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Vetiver, and Amberwood. 100BON's Mirage du Desert carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Mirage du Desert is a dry, spiced woody scent that feels more like sun-baked stone than sand. The cardamom and fig opening is unusual, and the cedar and vetiver base keeps it grounded. A calm, unfussy pick for anyone who likes their woods dry.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Mirage du Desert opens with cardamom, fig and carrot seeds, a dry and slightly earthy start that leans spicy rather than sweet. The heart turns to sandalwood and papyrus, with iris and frankincense adding a smooth, powdery, resinous edge. The base settles into cedar, vetiver, musk and amberwood, keeping everything dry and woody. This Eau de Toilette is a spiced, woody scent that feels calm, airy and quietly sophisticated, made for easy everyday wear.
