Lubin Upper Ten is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Thomas Fontaine. Upper Ten opens with Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Saffron, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Geranium, Cardamom, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Amber, and Cedar. Lubin's Upper Ten carries a Statement verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, unique scent that evokes polished sophistication and quiet confidence. It's a 'love it or leave it' affair, often praised as a modern classic but some find it a bit too niche.

About

Upper Ten opens with a zesty, almost boozy pop of juniper and bergamot, spiced up by pink pepper and a hint of saffron. The heart unfolds into a velvety peach and orange blossom, balanced by warm cinnamon and cardamom, avoiding anything overly sweet. It settles into a rich, musky base of smooth leather and amber, with grounding cedar and sandalwood lending a clean, woody depth that lingers beautifully.
