Korres Pepper Jasmine Gaiac Wood Passion Fruit is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2009. Pepper Jasmine Gaiac Wood Passion Fruit opens with Anise, Citrus, Sandalwood, and Vanilla, settles into a heart of Guaiac Wood, Jasmine, and Passionfruit, and dries down to a base of White Chocolate, Green Notes, Pepper, and Peach. Korres's Pepper Jasmine Gaiac Wood Passion Fruit carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This Korres gem, now sadly discontinued, is a divisive but ultimately beloved woody-gourmand with a complex, shape-shifting character that truly shines in cooler weather.

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

Opens with a sweet and spicy warmth, thanks to anise and vanilla, quickly ushering in a rich heart of guaiac wood and a subtle, almost candied jasmine. The exotic sweetness of passionfruit and peach adds a fruity tang, balancing the creamy, buttery white chocolate base. A playful pepper note throughout gives it an unexpected edge, ensuring it's never overtly sweet, but always intriguing.
