Les Eaux Primordiales Mimosa Supercritique is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Amélie Bourgeois and Arnaud Poulain. Mimosa Supercritique opens with Cyclamen, Bergamot, Neroli, and Aldehydes, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Mimosa, and Ambroxan. Les Eaux Primordiales's Mimosa Supercritique carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This mimosa is a surprisingly polarising one. For most, it's a sweet, powdery, angelic floral, but a vocal minority find it too cloying or pick up an off-putting animalic note. Definitely one to try before you buy.

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

Mimosa Supercritique opens with a bright, airy burst of aldehydes, cyclamen, and bergamot, quickly softening into a heart of lush white florals. Tuberose, jasmine, and orange blossom intertwine with a powdery sweetness, evoking delicate petals dusted with sugar. The base settles into a comforting embrace of mimosa, soft musk, and a subtle hint of ambroxan, creating an ethereal, clean finish.
