4160 Tuesdays Sonnet No 1 is a Parfum launched in 2023, created by Sarah McCartney. Sonnet No 1 settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, Lavender, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Musk. 4160 Tuesdays's Sonnet No 1 carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. Sonnet No 1 delivers a smooth, elegant floral, but some noses will pick up on its more industrial undercurrents. If you can get past the quirks, it's a beautifully blended, long-lasting scent.

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.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring

Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its impressive longevity and sillage, highlighted by reviewers, make it less ideal for a discreet office setting but perfect for dates or evening events where you want to make an impression. The elegant floral profile, despite its quirks, suits more formal or romantic occasions.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • 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

Sonnet No 1 opens with a soft, powdery violet floral, quickly joined by the warm, sweet scent of beeswax and a hint of green hay. As it develops, a classic rose unfurls, mingling with a touch of clean musk and delicate lily. It's an elegant, multifaceted floral, underpinned by a unique animalic sweetness that gives it fantastic depth and longevity.
