Maiora Parfum Phraenesya Pastiera is a Parfum launched in 2023, created by Antonio Gigli. Phraenesya Pastiera opens with Lemon, Orange, Raspberry, and Coconut, settles into a heart of Sweet Pastry, Orange Blossom, Cinnamon, and Tonka Bean, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Amber, and Patchouli. Maiora Parfum's Phraenesya Pastiera carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A divisive gourmand that swings between a heavenly coconut cake and a patchouli-heavy mess or even something far less pleasant. You'll either adore its rich, sweet pastry vibe or find it utterly unwearable. Definitely one to try before you 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.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage, combined with its strong gourmand profile, make it a bit much for the office. It excels in date night or casual settings where its sweet, comforting warmth can be appreciated, though some find it too heavy for warmer weather.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Limonene from Orange
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Phraenesya Pastiera opens with a zesty burst of lemon and orange, quickly softened by a creamy, sweet coconut and a hint of raspberry. This bright introduction gives way to the true heart of the fragrance: a warm, indulgent sweet pastry accord, spiced with cinnamon and enriched by caramel and tonka. As it dries down, a comforting blend of vanilla, amber, and benzoin emerges, grounded by subtle woody notes and a touch of patchouli that can be quite prominent on some skin.
