Filippo Sorcinelli Didone is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Filippo Sorcinelli. Didone opens with Rose, Saffron, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Labdanum, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Smoke, Amber, Patchouli, and Burning Wood. Filippo Sorcinelli's Didone carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find its smoky rose a masterclass in complexity, a whole scene in a bottle. Others? They reckon it's an absolute scrubber, akin to 'dying embers and jammy rose' in all the wrong ways. Definitely not a blind buy.

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.

Date Formal

Given its strong smoky and amber accords, plus a reputation for good longevity from reviewers, Didone is far too potent for the office or casual wear. It suits evening dates and formal events where its commanding presence can truly shine.

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

Didone opens with a dramatic flourish of dark rose and sweet blackcurrant, spiced up with a whisper of saffron. It swiftly descends into a smoky heart, where labdanum and incense weave an intoxicating, almost ceremonial atmosphere. The base is all about primal warmth: amber, patchouli, and the unmistakable scent of burning wood and ash lingering long after the fire has died.
