Les Liquides Imaginaires Saffron Mandarin is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Wesley Perumal. Saffron Mandarin opens with Lemon, Blood Orange, Mandarin, and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Ylang-Ylang, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Oak, Tonka Bean, Labdanum, and Benzoin. Les Liquides Imaginaires's Saffron Mandarin carries a Favourite verdict, an elemental-led wear.

This one's a proper marmite fragrance - you'll either love its realistic, zesty mandarin and unique woody dry down, or find it overwhelmingly sour and screechy. Definitely one to try before you buy a full bottle.

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.

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its fresh and unique character, make it versatile for casual wear and dates. The intense citrus and spicy opening might be a bit much for a formal setting or a tightly packed office, but it's invigorating for sport.

About

Saffron Mandarin kicks off with a vivacious burst of photorealistic citrus, blending juicy mandarin and blood orange with a sharp, peppery edge from pink and black pepper. As it settles, a clean saffron note emerges, weaving through the vibrant top, before mellowing into a sophisticated base of earthy oak and warm, resinous benzoin. The hint of tonka bean adds a smooth, slightly sweet undertone.
