by Olivia Giacobetti

Lubin Idole is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Olivia Giacobetti. The fragrance opens with Caraway, Rum, Saffron, and Bitter Orange, settles into a heart of Sugar Cane, Woody, Ebony, and Palm Leaf, and dries down to a base of Labdanum, Leather, Sandalwood, and Amber.

Our verdict on Idole: Statement

Lubin's Idole EDP is a divisive one. Many find it a rich, boozy, sophisticated amber-wood symphony, but a good proportion are left underwhelmed by its projection and longevity. A 'love it or leave it' kinda scent, with a price tag to match its luxurious bottle.

Its rich, boozy, and spicy character makes it less suitable for the office or sport. However, its sophisticated and sensual allure, while potentially lacking in sillage for some, is perfect for dates and evening formal events.

About

Opens with a potent, delectable shot of rum, spiced with carraway and saffron, brightened by bitter orange. The heart introduces a smoky, woody depth with ebony, incense, and a hint of sweet cane sugar. It settles into a warm, sensual base of leather, amber, and sandalwood, lingering with an intriguing complexity.
