Faberlic Pulse is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2012, created by Alain Allione. Pulse opens with Bergamot, Lavender, and Mint, settles into a heart of Caraway, Dark Chocolate, Orange Blossom, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Cumin, and Tonka Bean. Faberlic's Pulse carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A warm, spiced masculine scent that mixes lavender and mint with dark chocolate, vanilla and cinnamon. Cumin and tonka give it a rich base. It is bold and a bit sweet, and a good fit for cooler weather.

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.

About

Pulse opens with lavender, bergamot and mint, a fresh, herbal and aromatic start. The heart is richer: dark chocolate, vanilla, caraway, cinnamon and orange blossom give a sweet and spiced centre. Cumin, tonka bean, cedar and sandalwood make up the base, warm, woody and slightly skin-like. It is a bold masculine scent that moves from fresh herbs to sweet spice.
