Kenzo Peace is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008, created by Annick Menardo. Peace opens with Mandarin, settles into a heart of Cedar, and dries down to a base of Musk, Heliotrope, Vanilla, and Tonka Bean. Kenzo's Peace carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

Kenzo Peace is a creamy, woody dream that had its moment and was gone too soon. It's a proper unisex stunner, but sadly, it's discontinued. If you find a bottle, snap it up - it's a cult classic for a reason.

Topas listed
Heartas listed

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:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Given its moderate sillage and skin-close wear, Peace is a great choice for casual settings and intimate dates where a softer scent is preferred. While it doesn't shout, its unique character could still work in an office setting for someone wanting a subtle statement, but is too relaxed for formal events and obviously unsuitable for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine a soft, milky vanilla-heliotrope embrace, given depth by warm tonka bean and a creamy woody core of cedar. Hints of bright mandarin cut through the sweetness, preventing it from becoming cloying, while a clean musk ensures a comforting, skin-like finish. It’s subtly sweet, yet robust, with a truly distinctive almond-like nuance.
