Grimoire Parfums Wú Gāng is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Trung Vu. Wú Gāng opens with Davana, Mandarin, Sichuan Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Mate, Jasmine, Magnolia, and Osmanthus, and dries down to a base of Linen, Cedar, Patchouli, and Birch Tar. Grimoire Parfums's Wú Gāng carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

Seriously, Wú Gāng is a bit weird - but in a good way. It's a proper artistic statement, and if you're bored of the usual, this will spark something glorious.

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.

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

Wú Gāng kicks off with a vibrant, fruity splash of mandarin and raspberry, spiced up with a whisper of Sichuan pepper. The heart unfurls into a textured floral dream, where jasmine and magnolia dance with the unexpected warmth of cinnamon and mate. The drydown is pure artistry, settling into an atmospheric blend of rustic birch tar and tobacco, softened by linen, giving it an ancient, almost mythological feel.
