Kate Walsh Billionaire Boyfriend is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Billionaire Boyfriend opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Jasmine, Gardenia, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Amber. Kate Walsh's Billionaire Boyfriend carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This divisive scent is a 'love it or hate it' affair. While some find it a sophisticated, sensual amber-floral, others are repelled by what they perceive as an 'old lady' or even 'cat pee' aroma. Try before you buy, obviously.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

About

Billionaire Boyfriend opens with a burst of zesty bergamot and tangerine, quickly met by lush green notes. The heart blossoms into a rich, heady floral bouquet of jasmine, gardenia, and orchid, grounded by an earthy, slightly dirty patchouli. The dry down settles into a warm, inviting amber, providing a cozy and sensual finish.
