Costume National Scents Soul is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Dominique Ropion. Soul opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Vanilla, and Ambergris. Costume National Scents's Soul carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Costume National Soul is a polarising beast, a bold take on woody amber with a divisive oud and a rich, sweet spice profile. It's not for everyone, but if you love it, you'll really love it. Just be warned, it's potent.

About

Opens with an energetic burst of cardamom and pink pepper, swiftly softened by warm bergamot. The heart reveals a robust, slightly medicinal oud, intertwined with rich amber and a hint of animalic depth. As it settles, a luxurious vanilla emerges, blending seamlessly with earthy patchouli, creating a sweet, spicy, and long-lasting embrace.
