BORNTOSTANDOUT NSFW is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Florian Gallo. NSFW opens with Rose and Grasse Rose Absolute, settles into a heart of Papyrus, Geranium, and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Oud, Patchouli, Violet, and Benzoin. BORNTOSTANDOUT's NSFW carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you, this rose and oud combo is surprisingly safe for work, blending traditional sophistication with a modern edge. Some find it a bit too much, others embrace its unique charm, so it's not for everyone.

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.

With its long-lasting performance and strong sillage, this scent commands attention, making it less ideal for a subtle office setting. However, its sophisticated rose and oud profile, despite being polarising for some, makes it a refined choice for dates and formal events.

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.

About

NSFW opens with a vibrant, almost soapy burst of various roses, capturing the fresh essence of a full bouquet. As it settles, the heart reveals a subtle sweetness from vanilla, interwoven with the dry, earthy tones of papyrus and geranium. The dry-down introduces a soft, animalic oud note, softened by violet and grounded by the deep, resinous benzoin and patchouli, creating a complex, evolving scent.
