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 Winter
Also Works:
Spring

The dense vanilla, almond, and tonka bean make Poison Girl best suited for cooler months, where its sweetness and warmth shine without overwhelming. It can transition into spring evenings but is too heavy for most summer days.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its bold sweetness and projection are ideal for date nights and casual outings where you want to stand out. Too intense and gourmand for most office or sporty settings, but can work at evening events with the right attitude.

About

Poison Girl Eau de Parfum opens with a zesty burst of bitter orange and lemon, quickly melting into a heart of lush Damask and Grasse rose, dusted with powdery heliotrope and orange blossom. The base is a decadent gourmand embrace: creamy vanilla, nutty almond, smoky tonka bean, and resinous tolu balsam over a bed of soft sandalwood and cashmeran. The effect is voluptuous and addictive - sweet yet sophisticated, a rebellious confection that balances youthful vibrance with mature sensuality. The sillage is bold and enveloping, perfect for those who want their scent to announce their presence.
