FAKOSHIMA Crème de la Crème is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Yaroslav Simonov. Crème de la Crème opens with Absinth, Apricot, Saucer Magnolia, and Cotton Candy, settles into a heart of Suede, Immortelle, Clementine, and Cacao Pod, and dries down to a base of Cade, Sandalwood, Tobacco, and Civet. FAKOSHIMA's Crème de la Crème carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Divisive, peculiar, and absolutely not a safe blind buy. Crème de la Crème is a complex beast of creamy tuberose, boozy absinthe, and animalic undertones, loved by some for its originality, reviled by others as a 'poisonous beaver'.

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.

With its long-lasting performance and intimate sillage, this fragrance is best suited for close encounters where its complex nature can be appreciated without being overwhelming. Its distinctive and somewhat avant-garde character makes it less appropriate for conservative office or formal settings, though some might find it suitable for a bold evening statement.

About

Crème de la Crème opens with an intriguing and boozy splash of absinthe, immediately followed by the fruity sweetness of apricot and an ethereal touch of cotton candy. As it settles, a rich, creamy tuberose emerges, softened by a luxurious suede and the warm, hay-like notes of immortelle. The dry-down reveals a deeper, more animalic character with civet and robust tobacco, grounded by smoky cade and smooth sandalwood, leaving a complex and lingering impression.
