Bon Parfumeur 401 cedar, candied plum, vanilla is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. 401 cedar, candied plum, vanilla opens with Bergamot, Cypress, Incense, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Cedar, Patchouli, Cinnamon, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Bon Parfumeur's 401 cedar, candied plum, vanilla carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a Marmite scent - you'll either adore its sticky plum and smoky incense glory, or recoil from its perceived 'old lady' or 'potpourri' vibes. Those who get it, REALLY get it, swearing it's a stellar dupe for TF's Plum Japonais. Sample first, but if it clicks, prepare for a captivating ride.

About

Candied plum and juicy dark fruits lead the charge, quickly enveloped by a rich, resinous amber and warm, woody spices like cinnamon and cedar. Hints of ethereal incense weave through, adding a sophisticated, smoky depth, while a gentle vanilla and earthy patchouli create a smooth, slightly sweet base. It's a complex, evolving scent that dances between fruity indulgence and woody warmth.
