Grès État de Grace is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. État de Grace opens with Bergamot, Violet, and Rosemary, settles into a heart of Rose and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, and Labdanum. Grès's État de Grace carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

An absolute steal, this is a seriously sophisticated amber that punches way above its weight. Ignore the naysayers; this is a warm, spicy hug in a bottle, perfect for those who appreciate a touch of vintage class without the vintage price tag.

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.

About

État de Grace opens with a fresh, aromatic burst of bergamot and rosemary, quickly softened by a delicate violet. As it settles, a warm, inviting cinnamon emerges, intertwining with a subtle rose. The dry down is a rich, balsamic amber, grounded by earthy patchouli and a smoky labdanum that lingers beautifully, evoking a sense of cozy elegance.
