Bombay Perfumery Seven Islands is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Seven Islands opens with Grapefruit and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Violet, Frankincense, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Oakmoss, and Vanilla. Bombay Perfumery's Seven Islands carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A divisive scent, Seven Islands promises an island escape but delivers a quirky mix of floral, fruity, and incense notes that not everyone will connect with. It's an interesting concept, but the execution won't be for all.

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.

About

Seven Islands opens with a bright burst of grapefruit and orange blossom, giving way to a surprisingly complex heart of delicate jasmine, sweet peach, powdery violet, and an unexpected smokiness from frankincense. The dry down settles into a soft, musky embrace with touches of cedar, earthy oakmoss, and a warm, creamy vanilla and tonka bean. It's a journey from zesty freshness to a contemplative, cosy base.
