Filippo Sorcinelli VLAD is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Filippo Sorcinelli. VLAD opens with Patchouli, Birch, and Incense, settles into a heart of Pebbles and Rose, and dries down to a base of Pepper, Myrrh, and Wormwood. Filippo Sorcinelli's VLAD carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair, with passionate defenders and equally vocal detractors. If you're after a bold, ritualistic incense bomb, Vlad is your dark horse, but expect robust discussion.

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

Best For:
Date Formal

Vlad's heavy incense and strong spicy-woody character make it unsuitable for office wear or casual daytime outings, where it could overwhelm. Its bold, ritualistic quality suits formal events or intimate evening dates perfectly, offering a unique and memorable presence.

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

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

Vlad opens with a punchy, almost brutal hit of birch and patchouli, softened by a rising tide of church-heavy incense. The heart introduces a mineral-inflected rose, providing a fleeting, almost metallic airiness amidst the smoky amber and warm spices. As it settles, a base of peppery myrrh and subtle wormwood adds a balsamic, slightly bitter depth, evoking ancient cathedrals and smouldering embers.
