Kenzo Jungle L'Elephant is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1996, created by Dominique Ropion. Jungle L'Elephant opens with Mandarin, Clove, and Cumin, settles into a heart of Caraway, Ylang-Ylang, Heliotrope, and Gardenia, and dries down to a base of Amber, Patchouli, and Vanilla. Kenzo's Jungle L'Elephant carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Kenzo Jungle L'Elephant is a legendary beast of a fragrance, utterly polarising. You'll either adore its unique, potent spice-bomb character or find it an absolute scrubber. Not for the faint-hearted, this is a statement scent that demands attention.

About

Imagine a vibrant, bustling spice market in full swing, then add in a tropical fruit stall. Jungle L'Elephant opens with a bold hit of warm, piquant clove and cumin, brightened by mandarin. As it develops, a creamy, exotic mango and ylang-ylang emerge, underscored by the earthy sweetness of licorice and cardamon. The dry down settles into a rich, enveloping blend of vanilla, amber, and patchouli, holding onto that distinctive spicy warmth throughout.
