L'Artisan Parfumeur Mont de Narcisse is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018, created by Anne Flipo and Florent di Marino. Mont de Narcisse opens with Bergamot, Lavender, Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Green Notes, Osmanthus, and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Leather, Birch, and Vanilla. L'Artisan Parfumeur's Mont de Narcisse carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a seriously polarising scent: either an utterly unique, comforting masterpiece or a bizarre, fleeting chemical mess. It's a divisive leather-floral that defies easy categorisation.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate sillage keeps it from being overwhelming for office wear, but its unique, complex character makes it ideal for dates and more formal evening events. The leathery, smoky notes lend themselves well to cooler weather and less casual settings.

About

Opens with a fleeting, peppery greenness, hinting at bergamot and cardamom before plunging into a rich, complex heart. Here, smoky dried plums and a subtle, honeyed immortelle mingle with whispers of a green, slightly rubbery narcissus. The base is where it truly settles, with a soft, worn leather balanced by dry birch and a hint of vanilla, creating a sophisticated, contemplative aroma.
