Alfred Dunhill Nordic Fougère is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Michel Almairac and Jérôme Epinette. Nordic Fougère opens with Pepper, Cardamom, and Basil, settles into a heart of Kumquat, Geranium, and Bamboo, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Alfred Dunhill's Nordic Fougère carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This Dunhill offering is a refreshingly nuanced take on a freshie, masquerading as a modern fougère. Despite its name, don't expect classic barbershop vibes - it's a cool aquatic, earning praise as an easy-wearing, office-safe staple.

Scent Profile

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.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

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

Imagine a brisk, clean breeze through a Nordic forest, carrying hints of sharp basil and the bright zest of kumquat. Aromatic geranium and fresh bamboo leaves add a touch of cooling greenness, while a sophisticated base of creamy sandalwood and a whisper of vanilla grounds the composition. It's fresh, airy, and undeniably modern, steering clear of any heavy, traditional scent profiles.
