État Libre d'Orange Tom of Finland is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2007, created by Antoine Lie. Tom of Finland opens with Lemon and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Birch, Cypress, Pine, and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Suede, Musk, Vetiver, and Iris. État Libre d'Orange's Tom of Finland carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Divisive, polarising, but undeniably unique. This one's either a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a provocative leather creation that dares you to wear it.

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.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

While some find it office-friendly due to its clean character, its unique and occasionally challenging 'rubber' or 'latex' notes make it a more daring choice. It's best suited for dates or casual wear where its unconventional charm can be appreciated.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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 cool, almost sanitised aldehyde and a flash of lemon, hinting at something clean yet industrial. The heart unearths a forest of cypress and pine, spiced with pepper, before settling into a soft, yet robust suede. A powdery iris fuses with creamy vanilla and tonka bean in the base, underpinned by earthy vetiver and a hint of musk, creating a complex 'clean skin' sensation with an edgy, rubbery undertone.
