BORNTOSTANDOUT Drunk Maple is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Alex Lee. Drunk Maple opens with Davana, Pink Pepper, and Rum, settles into a heart of Suede, Maple, Maple, and Coffee, and dries down to a base of Orcanox, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Benzoin. BORNTOSTANDOUT's Drunk Maple carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a seriously polarising scent: a syrupy, boozy gourmand that promises warmth and depth, but for some, just delivers a boozy, thick mess. It's a statement, no doubt, but one that not everyone will appreciate.

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.

Casual

This is a powerhouse, nuclear-strength fragrance according to many reviews, with immense projection and longevity. Its dense gourmand and boozy character makes it far too overwhelming for an office, but perfect for a bold statement on a cold-weather date. Casual wear is possible, but demands a light hand.

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

Opening with a potent swirl of rum and sweet davana, offset by a hint of pink pepper, Drunk Maple immediately announces its intentions. The heart plunges into a rich, decadent blend of maple syrup and coffee, grounded by a soft suede accord. As it settles, a lingering base of orcanox, creamy sandalwood, benzoin, and vanilla wraps you in an intensely warm, sweet embrace. Imagine a sticky, boozy dessert in a leather-scented library.
