Molton Brown Re-charge Black Pepper is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2015, created by Jacques Chabert. Re-charge Black Pepper opens with Lemon, Pepper, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Coriander and Basil, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Oakmoss, and Ambergris. Molton Brown's Re-charge Black Pepper carries a Favourite verdict, a spicy-led wear.

Molton Brown's Re-charge Black Pepper delivers a spirited, spice-forward kick, though its impact mellows quickly. It's a clean, masculine scent that many love, but some find it falls short of its fiery name in the drydown, ultimately settling into something more subtle.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:

Its initial punch and subsequent settling into a clean, sophisticated skin scent makes it versatile. The moderate longevity and sillage for an EDT mean it's suitable for daily wear, leaning more casual or office-appropriate than formal dates.

About

A vibrant start of black pepper, zingy lemon, and fresh ginger bursts forth, bright and invigorating. This energetic opening soon folds into a green heart of aromatic basil and coriander, adding an herbal counterpoint. The base then emerges with dry vetiver, earthy oakmoss, and a touch of ambergris, grounding the spice in a smooth, understated finish. It's a journey from bold to refined.
