Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue Pulse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. 5th Avenue Pulse opens with Pink Pepper and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Tuberose and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, and Coffee. Elizabeth Arden's 5th Avenue Pulse carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This flanker is a divisive one - some find it a delightful fruity-gourmand cheapie, while others are left utterly underwhelmed by what they perceive as a generic, even nauseating, floral mix. Tester bottle magic seems to be a recurring theme here, so buyer beware.

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.

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and sometimes strong projection might be too much for an office setting, but it's perfect for casual outings or a playful date night. The prominent sweetness and fruity notes make it less suitable for formal events.

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.

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 bright, juicy burst of blackcurrant and a subtle kick of pink pepper, quickly transitioning into a heart of sweet tuberose and creamy magnolia. The dry-down reveals a warm, amber-like base of sandalwood and tonka bean, with some finding an undercurrent of sweet coffee that grounds the sweetness.
