Histoires de Parfums Outrecuidant is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Julien Rasquinet and Fanny Bal. Outrecuidant opens with Redcurrant Leaf, Grapefruit, and Pineapple, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Cardamom, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Leather, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Histoires de Parfums's Outrecuidant carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Outrecuidant is a divisive beast. Expect a chaotic, animalic leather with sweet fruity nuances that some find alluring and others utterly repulsive. It's a challenging wear for confident types, not for the faint-hearted.

This powerful, long-lasting scent with significant projection is far too dominant for an office setting. It shines in evening and formal wear, where its sensual, mysterious character can truly make a statement, but it's too much for casual or sporty activities.

About

Opens with a punch of juicy pineapple and tart redcurrant leaf, swiftly followed by a rich, warm spice medley of saffron and cardamom. The heart unfolds into a dark, smoky leather, animalic and potent, underscored by earthy patchouli and creamy woods like sandalwood and cedar. A truly bold and complex olfactory journey.
