L'Entropiste Dorian's Spleen is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Bertrand Duchaufour. Dorian's Spleen settles into a heart of Smoke, Whisky, Dark Chocolate, and Spicy. L'Entropiste's Dorian's Spleen carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

This is a seriously polarising brew. Some see art in its bitter, boozy smoke, a truly unique take on addiction and decay. Others find it repulsive, a mishmash of clashing notes that's more off-putting than artistic. Proceed with caution.

About

Dorian's Spleen opens with a harsh, boozy hit of whiskey, quickly joined by bittersweet dark chocolate and the rich, earthy depth of coffee. As it settles, a prominent smoky accord emerges, intertwined with warm spices and a touch of caramel sweetness. The journey progresses from opulent gourmand notes to a distinct, almost melancholic ashy dry-down, reflecting a narrative of excess and decay.
