Histoires de Parfums 1876 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2001, created by Sylvie Jourdet. 1876 opens with Bergamot, Orange, and Litchi, settles into a heart of Caraway, Rose, Iris, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Guaiac Wood. Histoires de Parfums's 1876 carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. 1876 is a spicy, powdery rose that conjures vintage glamour for some, while others find it too old-fashioned or just plain weird. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so test first to see if you're team 'glamorous spy' or 'antique cosmetics'.

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
Also Works:
Spring Summer Winter

An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its bold and complex spicy-rose profile leans towards evenings and special events rather than daily casual wear or sports. While intriguing, the divisive nature and moderate to strong sillage mean it might be a bit much for a conservative office environment.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • 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

It kicks off with a fizzy litchi and orange zest that quickly gives way to a full-bodied, almost jammy rose. Soon, a rich, powdery iris and violet emerge, underpinned by a warm, spicy mix of cinnamon and caraway. The dry down settles into a smoky, musky vetiver and sandalwood, softened by a touch of clean vanilla, leaving a lasting impression of sophisticated antiquity.
