Filippo Sorcinelli Notre Dame 15.4.2019 is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2020. Notre Dame 15.4.2019 opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Neroli, settles into a heart of Geranium, Lily of the Valley, and Ambrette, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Filippo Sorcinelli's Notre Dame 15.4.2019 carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair. Expect a shock of industrial smoke and ash, then decide if you want to smell like a beautiful catastrophe or just a bonfire. Definitely not for the faint-hearted, but a unique, artistic statement if you're bold enough.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Date Formal

Its intense smoky and woody character, combined with long-lasting performance, makes it far too assertive for the office. It leans towards more contemplative or special evening occasions where its unique profile can be appreciated, like a formal event or a date for those who appreciate unconventional scents. It's not a casual reach; it demands attention.

About

Opens with an arresting blast of acrid incense and smoky woods, sharp and almost mineralic like extinguished embers after a blaze. Hints of bright citrus and green galbanum try to cut through the darkness, adding a fleeting freshness. As it settles, iris and geranium introduce a subtle, almost melancholic floral whisper, while a deep, resinous amber and earthy patchouli provide a rich, complex dry-down that lingers like a haunting memory. It's less 'church incense' and more 'burning building'.
