Atkinsons Tulipe Noire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Fabrice Pellegrin. Tulipe Noire opens with Rhubarb, Bergamot, and Coriander, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Ambroxan. Atkinsons's Tulipe Noire carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one is a proper 'love it or hate it' fragrance, mostly down to its hefty ambroxan and white floral core. If you enjoy a strong, slightly gothic tuberose, you might just find your new obsession, but be warned, it's not for the faint-hearted.

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.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • 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

Opens with a sharp, tangy burst of rhubarb and bergamot, cut through with a hint of pungent coriander, before diving into a heady bouquet of jasmine and tuberose. The drydown settles into a rich and enduring blend of musk, sandalwood, and cedar, amplified by a massive dose of ambroxan that lends a woody, slightly animalic depth.
