Max Philip Maroon is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Maroon opens with Bergamot and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Leather, Patchouli, Clean Musk, and Caramel. Max Philip's Maroon carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

A dark fruity floral with a sweet, leathery base. It is a good fit if you like a perfume with some edge, and the caramel keeps it from getting too serious.

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.

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.

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

Maroon opens with bergamot and blackcurrant, a sharp and juicy start. At the heart, iris, rose and jasmine bring a powdery, floral richness. The base is where it gets interesting, with patchouli, caramel, leather and clean musk giving a sweet, earthy depth. It is a floral with a dark fruit opening and a warm, leathery finish, with an edge that feels a little moody.
