Czech & Speake No.88 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. No.88 opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rose, Geranium, Frangipani, and Blackcurrant, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood and Vetiver. Czech & Speake's No.88 carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A divisive, gothic floral that's truly unique. No.88 is a proper head-turner, but its unconventional charm won't be for everyone. If you're bored of the mainstream, this dark, sophisticated rose might just be your next signature.

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.

Its bold, old-school aroma and good performance make it too distinctive for typical office wear, potentially overwhelming. However, this same unique character lends itself perfectly to formal events and date nights where making a memorable impression is key, often described as 'vampire sexy'.

About

No.88 opens with a flash of bergamot, quickly giving way to a rich, dewy rose heart, deepened by geranium and the exotic sweetness of frangipani. As it settles, a sophisticated blend of vetiver and sandalwood emerges, grounding the florals with an earthy, woody base. There's a barbershop quality mingled with a dark, almost brooding undercurrent, alongside hints of redcurrant leaf adding a subtle green fruitiness.
