Kilian Sophie Matisse Art Edition Straight To Heaven, Splash Of Lemon is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. Sophie Matisse Art Edition Straight To Heaven, Splash Of Lemon opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Rum, settles into a heart of Cedar, Patchouli, Rose, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Kilian's Sophie Matisse Art Edition Straight To Heaven, Splash Of Lemon carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair. Some say it's an unnecessary, weakened flanker with a dodgy lemon note, while others reckon the citrus splash elevates the original to new heights of versatility and charm. You'll either love the zest or find it a zesty mess.

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.

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with the brighter citrus notes, make it suitable for a range of settings. It's often praised for its versatility, working well for daytime and semi-formal events, though some find its projection too weak for significant impact.

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.

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

Opens with a bracing, bright hit of lemon and bergamot, sharply cutting through a boozy rum accord. The heart reveals a sophisticated blend of dry cedar and earthy patchouli, warmed by a hint of spicy nutmeg and a soft rose. As it settles, a smooth base of amber, vanilla, and musk emerges, leaving a subtle, warm, and woody trail.
