Jeanne Arthes Boum Metal is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Boum Metal opens with Violet and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Cardamom and Sage, and dries down to a base of Chestnut and Vanilla. Jeanne Arthes's Boum Metal carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper mixed bag. Some find it a pleasant, if basic, powdery vanilla, while others are utterly repulsed. Don't expect a ground-breaking scent, but for the price, it might just surprise you.

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.

Its generally inoffensive nature, described as 'linear' and 'rudimentary' by some, makes it suitable for casual wear and the office, where a less 'penetrant' scent is often preferred. The 'shower gel' vibe suggests suitability for sports, but the lack of strong projection and longevity reduces its impact for formal or romantic occasions.

About

Boum Metal opens with an unusual metallic kick, laced with the soft, slightly sweet floral of violet and a hint of pink pepper's spice. As it settles, the scent moves into an aromatic heart of earthy sage and warm cardamom. The dry-down promises a creamy vanilla married with a subtle, nutty chestnut, though some find the vanilla quite elusive and the overall experience quite linear.
