Alfred Dunhill Custom is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011. Custom opens with Red Apple, settles into a heart of Pepper, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Incense. Alfred Dunhill's Custom carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Dunhill Custom is a baffling scent - universally praised for its gorgeous aroma, yet almost universally condemned for its abysmal longevity. It's the ultimate 'if only...' fragrance, destined to frustrate users with its fleeting beauty.

Its intimate sillage makes it suitable for office wear, but its seductive notes are particularly well-suited for date nights. The poor longevity means it's best for shorter evening events or situations where reapplication is easy, as many reviews highlight its quick fade.

About

Dunhill Custom opens with a distinctive red apple note, not overtly sweet but rather earthy and subtly spiced. A warm heart of black pepper quickly emerges, leading into a sophisticated drydown of smoky incense and dry cedarwood. The overall impression is a smooth, understated blend of fruity warmth and elegant woodiness.
