Kate Moss 2008 EDP

Velvet Hour

Name: Velvet Hour Eau de Parfum
Brand: Kate Moss

Kate Moss Velvet Hour is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Émilie Coppermann. Velvet Hour opens with Freesia, Pepper, and Incense, settles into a heart of Patchouli and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, and Sandalwood. Kate Moss's Velvet Hour carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

Velvet Hour is the dark, smoky, and unexpectedly complex celebrity fragrance that punches well above its weight. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, with fans obsessing over its unique depth and critics dismissing its poor performance or unusual scent profile.

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.

About

Opens with an intriguing kick of pepper and smoky incense, softened by a touch of freesia's floral grace. The heart deepens with earthy patchouli and warm, spicy nutmeg, leading to a base of rich, woody notes, creamy sandalwood, and enveloping amber. It evokes an intimate, shadowy atmosphere, like cashmere wrapped around a secret.
