4160 Tuesdays Paris 1948 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Sarah McCartney. Paris 1948 opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, Peach, and Basil, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Cedar, Rosewood, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oakmoss, Labdanum, and Hay. 4160 Tuesdays's Paris 1948 carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper ride, a true vintage chypre with a peachy, honeyed twist that some will adore and others simply won't 'get'. If you fancy something utterly unique that whispers rather than screams, then dive in. Otherwise, prepare for a potential clash of classic and modern. Divisive but utterly charming.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its moderate sillage and 'light, airy' nature make it pleasant for everyday wear, including the office, without being overwhelming. The elegant, slightly 'old-fashioned' character also suits dates and casual outings, though it might be too subtle for very formal events. It's definitely not a gym scent.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

It opens with a bright, almost fizzy burst of peach and grapefruit, lifted by a surprising herbal kick of basil. As it settles, a soft, honeyed rose and orange blossom emerge, grounding the fruit with a creamy, woody warmth from rosewood and cedar. The dry down is a classic chypre-lover's dream - earthy oakmoss and hay mingle with a touch of musk, creating a sophisticated, slightly shadowy finish that lingers beautifully.
