Jean Charles Brosseau Ombre Platine is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Thomas Fontaine. Ombre Platine opens with Red Apple, Bergamot, Pink Pepper, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Milk, Tuberose, Lily, and Plum, and dries down to a base of Virginia Cedarwood, Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Peru Balsam. Jean Charles Brosseau's Ombre Platine carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This is a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent. While some find it a unique, creamy coconut dream, others struggle with a synthetic opening and a muddled fruitiness that just doesn't quite click.

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.

Best For:
Date Casual

Its moderate longevity makes it suitable for various settings, though some find it a bit too unique or 'beachy' for formal events. The creamy, warm notes lend themselves well to dates and casual outings, but might be a bit much for a conservative office.

About

Ombre Platine opens with a quirky fruit cocktail of red apple and blackcurrant, spiced lightly with pink pepper, before venturing into a creamy, lactonic heart. Here, milk and coconut blend with the soft florals of tuberose and lily, rounded out by a hint of juicy plum. The dry down is a warm, woody embrace of cedarwood and sandalwood, sweetened by vanilla and a balsamic richness that lingers like a comforting, slightly exotic dessert.
