D’ORSAY Nous Sommes Amants. M.D. is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Bertrand Duchaufour. Nous Sommes Amants. M.D. opens with Pepper, Pink Pepper, Bamboo, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Palo Santo, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Musk, Leather, and Cedar. D’ORSAY's Nous Sommes Amants. M.D. carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive woody number - some find it an amazing, naturalistic palo santo dream, while others are left cold by its pencil-shavings vibe or limited staying power. Expect a crisp, peppery opening that settles into a soft, woody skin 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 Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Given its woody and aromatic profile, and the general consensus that it's a soft, intimate performer, this is ideal for casual wear where close-quarters pleasantness is key. It's too subtle for formal events, and just a bit too distinctive for everyday office wear, but good for a relaxed date.

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

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • 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

Nous Sommes Amants M.D. opens with a fresh, sharp burst of juniper and black and pink pepper, bright and invigorating, with a green whisper of bamboo. This quickly mellows into the creamy, almost smoky heart of palo santo, a truly distinctive woody note. As it dries down, a blend of warm sandalwood and cedar emerges, softened by a touch of musk and a dark, leathery hint, grounding the fragrance in a cosy, dry woodiness.
