Kilian Vodka on the Rocks is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Sidonie Lancesseur. Vodka on the Rocks opens with Cardamom, Coriander, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Rhubarb, Rose, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Ambroxan. Kilian's Vodka on the Rocks carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This one is as divisive as it is refreshing. While some reviewers rave about its unique icy vodka accord and versatility, others dismiss it as a forgettable, overpriced designer imposter. Definitely not for everyone, but a firm favourite for its fans.

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.

About

Opening with a bracing, almost effervescent aldehyde blast, this scent immediately evokes the crisp, cold snap of vodka on ice. Cardamom and coriander add a subtle, piquant spice, lending an initial aromatic lift. As it settles, a clean, watery rose and tart rhubarb emerge, underpinned by a soft, musky base of ambroxan and earthy oakmoss, creating a cool yet sophisticated aura.
