État Libre d'Orange Nombril Immense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2006, created by Nathalie Feisthauer. État Libre d'Orange's Nombril Immense carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Divisive, yet strangely compelling, Nombril Immense is a 'love it or hate it' patchouli that manages to be both intense and subtly refined. Not for the faint of heart, but a truly unique take.

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.

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

Nombril Immense opens with a fleeting, almost zesty bergamot that quickly gives way to a dominant, earthy patchouli. This isn't your average head-shop variety; here, it's softened and rounded by a powdery carrot seed, a touch of spicy pepper, and the warm, balsamic embrace of opoponax and Peru balsam. The vetiver lends a subtle woody-green depth, creating a scent that feels grounding and enveloping, settling into a comforting, slightly sweet skin scent.
