Brocard Silky Grass is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2021, created by Fabrice Pellegrin. Silky Grass opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Cardamom, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Mate and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Oakmoss. Brocard's Silky Grass carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A divisive scent, Silky Grass offers an initial burst of fresh citrus and green tea, but a 'dirty' musk or dry, dusty base splits opinion. Test before you commit.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its weak longevity and intimate sillage make it suitable for casual wear and close-quarters environments like the office, as it won't overpower. The fresh, green notes lend themselves well to daytime and sport activities.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • 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

Silky Grass opens with a zesty, invigorating blend of bergamot and lemon, sharpened by a hint of spicy cardamom and a dark blackcurrant undertone. As it settles, a prominent mate note emerges, reminiscent of green tea, alongside delicate jasmine florals. The base dries down to a musky, woody foundation with cedar and oakmoss, though some find this a 'dirty' or 'dusty' musk.
