Ellis Brooklyn Apres is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. Apres opens with Cardamom, Saffron, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Suede, Whisky, Guaiac Wood, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Ellis Brooklyn's Apres carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This woody-boozy scent smells like a festive log cabin or a hamster cage, depending on who you ask. A divisive scent that works best on certain skin chemistries, so don't blind buy.

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

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its moderate projection and woody-boozy accords make it unsuitable for office wear, but perfect for date nights or casual outings. It's a bit too casual for formal events, and its warmth doesn't align with sport activities.

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

Imagine crisp mountain air, a crackling fireplace, and a glass of whisky-spiked hot chocolate. Apres opens with an invigorating burst of juniper, saffron, and cardamom, settling into a rich heart of boozy whisky, soft suede, and nutty praline, underscored by balsamic labdanum and guaiac wood.
