Lubin Upper Ten For Her is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Delphine Thierry. Upper Ten For Her opens with Wine Grape, Bergamot, Elemi, and Wormwood, settles into a heart of Rose, Sichuan Pepper, and Raspberry, and dries down to a base of Dark Chocolate, Woody Notes, Amber, and Incense. Lubin's Upper Ten For Her carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a proper chameleon, often shifting from an intriguing tart-sweet opening to a smoky, woody, and subtly gourmand drydown. It's a divisive scent; some find it a unique, confident showstopper, while others dismiss it as a 'weird blend' or 'potpourri'. Certainly not a safe blind 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.

Its noted bombastic sillage and impressive longevity make it less suitable for office wear, where it might be too much. However, these same characteristics, combined with its unique and sultry blend, make it perfect for dates and evening formal events, especially in cooler weather. It's too rich and complex for sport.

About

Upper Ten For Her opens with a delightful fizz of wine grape and zesty bergamot, quickly joined by the tart sweetness of raspberry and a whisper of wormwood. As it settles, a sophisticated heart of spicy Sichuan pepper and delicate rose emerges, leading to a rich, warm base of dark chocolate, woody notes, amber, and incense. It's a journey from bright and fruity to deep and smoky, with a gourmet edge.
