An Excess of Carelessness

by Sarah McCartney

4160 Tuesdays An Excess of Carelessness is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Sarah McCartney. An Excess of Carelessness settles into a heart of Amber, Bergamot, Vanillin, and Heliotrope. 4160 Tuesdays's An Excess of Carelessness carries a Favourite verdict, a vanilla-led wear.

Divisive, to say the least, "An Excess of Carelessness" is either a weak, disappointing skin scent or a subtle, sophisticated nod to the Roaring Twenties. Don't expect big Gatsby energy from this one; it's a quiet whisper rather than a jazz-era roar.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and winter pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its low sillage and subtle, powdery nature make it suitable for office wear where it won't offend. The close-wearing nature means it could work for intimate dates, but the lack of 'pizazz' might make it less ideal for formal events. It's too subdued for an energetic activity like sport.

About

Imagine a soft, powdery veil, warmed by amber and vanillin, then brightened for a fleeting moment by a whisper of bergamot. Heliotrope adds to the gentle, almond-tinged powderiness, creating a vintage-inspired embrace that sits close to the skin. This isn't a blast of vanilla, but a more hushed, elegant interpretation, hinting at classic perfumes while remaining distinctly modern in its subtlety.
