Jorum Studio Pentimento is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Euan McCall. Pentimento opens with Broom, Tiare Flower, Orchid, and Hazelnut, settles into a heart of Tobacco Blossom and Carob Tree, and dries down to a base of Vanilla, Tonka Bean, and Rum. Jorum Studio's Pentimento carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is a proper divisive beast. You'll either love its unique blend of nutty gourmand and unexpected florals, finding it a cosy, sexy winter scent, or you'll be running for the hills from its 'synthetic' or 'nauseating' opening. Definitely not a blind buy.

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 Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its sweet, woody, and rum accords, combined with moderate sillage, make it too prominent for a formal office setting. However, its sensual and cosy nature is perfect for date nights or relaxed casual wear, especially in cooler weather, as mentioned by several reviewers.

About

Pentimento opens with a surprisingly rich, almost creamy hazelnut, quickly mingling with a soft hint of tropical tiare flower and sophisticated orchid. A dark, slightly bitter carob note emerges, resembling unsweetened cocoa, while a boozy rum undercurrent adds warmth. The drydown settles into a comforting, subtly sweet blend of vanilla and tonka bean, maintaining that signature nutty-woody complexity. It's a gourmand that plays peek-a-boo, never fully committing to outright sweetness, with a powdery, almost hay-like finish.
