Louis Cardin Phantom is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Phantom opens with Allspice, Bergamot, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Amber, Labdanum, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Leather, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Louis Cardin's Phantom carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a proper beast, a bold amber-woody punch in the face. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you want to make an entrance, Phantom's got you covered.

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
Also Works:
Spring

Built on amber, warm spicy and woody - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its high impact and strong sillage make it unsuitable for an office setting, but perfect for making a statement on a date or at a formal evening event. The deep, warm accords don't lend themselves to casual daytime wear or sport.

About

Phantom opens with a fiery kick of pepper and pimiento, zesty bergamot trying its best to cut through the impending warmth. The heart quickly melts into a rich, resinous blend of incense and labdanum, deepened by a generous dose of amber. As it settles, a dark, masculine leather accord emerges, grounded by earthy patchouli and creamy sandalwood, leaving a trail of sophisticated, smoky woods.
