Juliette Has A Gun Mad Madame is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Mad Madame opens with Amber, Rose, Freesia, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Oakmoss, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vanilla, Castoreum, and Tolu Balsam. Juliette Has A Gun's Mad Madame carries an Acquired verdict, a rose-led wear.

Divisive and unapologetically bold, Mad Madame is a 'love it or hate it' animalic rose that screams confidence. It's a sensual scent for those who dare to be different, but definitely not a safe blind buy.

About

Mad Madame opens with a powerful, darkly sophisticated rose, immediately intertwined with the juicy sharpness of blackcurrant and the warmth of amber. As it settles, a floral heart of jasmine and tuberose emerges, deepened by an earthy patchouli and a pronounced, almost primal musk. The base reveals rich castoreum and tolu balsam, lending a provocative animalic leatheriness that defines its 'mad' character, yet a subtle vanilla softens the edges.
