Old Fashioned

by Sidonie Lancesseur

Kilian Old Fashioned is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. The fragrance opens with Bergamot, Davana, and Wheat, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Orange Blossom, Whisky, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Styrax and Tolu Balsam.

Our verdict on Old Fashioned: Statement

Kilian's Old Fashioned is a divisonal boozy gourmand that delivers on its name, but isn't for everyone. Some find the realistic whiskey note captivating; others recoil from smelling like a "wealthy alcoholic old lady" or a night out. Not a safe blind-buy for the faint of liver.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With its photorealistic boozy opening and strong amber character, this is best reserved for evening events or intimate dates, rather than the office. The scent profile is too direct and heavy for casual or sporty wear, but works well for formal occasions in cool weather when you want to make a statement.

About

It opens with a punchy, almost shockingly realistic whiskey note, intermingled with the dry, malty sweetness of wheat and a hint of fruity davana. As it settles, a warm, spicy amber accord emerges, deepened by immortelle and a creamy, balsamic embrace. The base layers in styrax and tolu balsam, leaving a lingering, sweet, and resinous warmth that evokes spiced, boozy desserts and aged wooden barrels. Expect a journey from spirited pour to a cozy, contemplative dry-down.
