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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

This is a rich, boozy gourmand with pronounced sweet, spicy, and woody facets that excel in cool and cold weather, making it perfect for fall and winter. Its heaviness and warmth can feel cloying in heat, so it's best reserved for evenings or milder spring days.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong projection and seductive warmth make it ideal for dates and upscale evening events, while the bold sweetness may be too assertive for office or sporting situations. Better suited for occasions where you want to leave a memorable impression.

About

Angels' Share Eau de Parfum is Kilian's homage to the intoxicating aroma of cognac cellars and the golden 'angel's share' lost to evaporation. Waves of rich cognac, cinnamon, and creamy tonka bean meld with oak barrels and praline, conjuring a velvet-smooth, dessert-like warmth. Vanilla and sandalwood add depth, while a wisp of resin and aldehydes lend a sophisticated, almost smoky edge. This is an enveloping, long-lasting fragrance-bold and comforting, radiating luxury and gourmand delight.
