Jorum Studio Monolith is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Euan McCall. Monolith opens with Pepper, Cardamom, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Coffee, Myrrh, Frankincense, and Elemi, and dries down to a base of Oud, Oakmoss, Castoreum, and Labdanum. Jorum Studio's Monolith carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

Monolith is a fierce, untamed beast of a fragrance, divisive yet captivating. It's an unapologetically challenging art piece for those who crave intensity, not a crowd-pleasing scent for shrinking violets.

Scent Profile

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

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

Best Occasions

With its immense projection and intense smoky, earthy character, Monolith is far too strong for office or formal wear. It's a statement fragrance, best suited for niche casual events or nights out where its unique profile can be appreciated without overwhelming others.

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

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

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

Imagine a primal bonfire in a damp, ancient forest. Monolith opens with a raw, almost shocking blast of smoky peat and green fir resin, evoking burning wood and wet earth. This intense, almost medicinal character then yields to a rich heart of frankincense and leathery castoreum, deepened by a dark, earthy vetiver and a hint of spicy cardamom, all smouldering over an oud-infused base. It's a journey into the wild, rugged heart of nature.
