Argos Fragrances Sacred Flame is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Sacred Flame opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, Pepper, and Clove, settles into a heart of Cedar, Patchouli, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Vanilla. Argos Fragrances's Sacred Flame carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is a divisive marvel. Sacred Flame is a beast of a fragrance - a complex, spicy-fruity beast that some absolutely adore for its unique, evolving character and massive projection, while others find it too chaotic or even unpleasant. Definitely try before you buy.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Sacred Flame opens with a vibrant burst of juicy peach and tangerine, spiced up with a kick of ginger, clove, and pepper. It then transitions into a rich floral heart of rose, violet, and jasmine, deepened by cinnamon, patchouli, and cedar. The dry down is a warm, enveloping embrace of amber, vanilla, tonka bean, and cashmeran, with an earthy whisper of vetiver, creating a smouldering, almost burnt sugar effect.
