Frais et Frais Purple Frais is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026. Purple Frais opens with Leather, Bergamot, Saffron, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Lavender, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Amber, and Animalic. Frais et Frais's Purple Frais carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

Purple Frais is a bold, divisive scent. You'll either love its animalic growl and opulent swagger, or you'll be running for the hills. Definitely not for the faint-hearted or those who prefer to blend in.

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
Also Works:
Spring

Built on woody, animalic and warm spicy - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong animalic and woody accords, Purple Frais is far too assertive for the office or casual daytime wear. It's best reserved for evening events or dates where its bold character can truly shine without overwhelming others.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Purple Frais doesn't mess about. It opens with a daring mix of leathery saffron and a tart splash of blackcurrant, cut by a whisper of bergamot to give it just a touch of freshness. The heart is all about a narcotic jasmine, laced with aromatic lavender and a spicy kick of cardamom. As it settles, the scent deepens significantly, revealing a rich, almost feral animalic core wrapped in warm amber, creamy vanilla, and a robust woody base of cedar and oakmoss. It's a complex, challenging beast.
