Brocard Tartufo is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Philippe Paparella-Paris. Tartufo opens with Ginger, settles into a heart of Rosewood, Jasmine, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Balsam, Animalic, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Brocard's Tartufo carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Prepare for divisiveness with Brocard's Tartufo. Some say it's an affordable Black Orchid alternative for the dry, woody crowd, others get pickle juice and cat fur. It's a true love-it-or-hate-it scent.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Tartufo's woody, animalic character with good sillage and longevity leans it away from casual daytime wear or the office. It's better suited for evenings, dates, or formal gatherings where its unique depth can be appreciated. Many reviewers highlight its autumnal, cozy feel, making it great for cooler weather.

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

Opens with a sharp, fresh zing of ginger before transitioning to a rich, woody heart of rosewood and sweet florals like violet and jasmine. The base is where things get interesting: a deep, balsamic foundation of sandalwood and cedar intertwines with a distinct, earthy animalic note, creating a warm, sometimes mushroom-like depth. There's a persistent dryness throughout, like freshly polished wood or a crisp autumn forest floor.
