Histoires de Parfums 1828 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2001. 1828 opens with Citrus, Grapefruit, Eucalyptus, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Pepper and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, Pine, and Incense. Histoires de Parfums's 1828 carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mixed bag; some love its unique, sophisticated freshness, while others find it generic or, worse, sickly sweet. It's often praised for its opening but criticised for its short-lived performance, leaving many on the fence about a full bottle.

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:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its fresh, clean, and inoffensive profile makes it highly suitable for office and casual wear. Despite some finding it sophisticated enough for formal events, its generally short longevity prevents it from being a top choice for date nights or anything requiring significant projection throughout an evening.

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

Opens with a brisk, invigorating burst of citrus and eucalyptus, sharp and clear like a morning breeze. This energetic start mellows into a sophisticated heart of warm, camphorous nutmeg and a hint of pepper. The drydown reveals a distinguished woody base of pine and cedar, softened by an ethereal wisp of vetiver and incense, conjuring images of a serene, albeit faded, forest.
