Laurent Mazzone Parfums Scandinavian Crime is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2016. Scandinavian Crime opens with Pepper, Cardamom, Ginger, and Coriander, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Laurent Mazzone Parfums's Scandinavian Crime carries an Acquired verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This is a seriously hyped-up, dark Christmas concoction that's either a "true love" or a bit of a meh let-down, depending on your skin chemistry and incense sensibilities. If you want to smell like a sophisticated Christmas Eve service in a bottle, this is your jam.

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:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

The strong, warm spicy, and amber accords, combined with its described intensity and Christmas-like feel, make it too prominent for an office setting. It's perfectly suited for cooler evening dates and formal events where its luxurious, bold character can truly shine.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Scandinavian Crime opens with a punchy blast of warm, fresh spices - think fiery ginger, piquant pepper, and aromatic cardamom - quickly simmering down to a smoky, resinous heart. Labdanum and amber lend a cosy warmth, while a subtle whisper of vanilla and musk softens the dry-down, evoking a luxurious, spiced evening.
