Moth and Rabbit La Haine is an Eau de Parfum, created by Mark Buxton. La Haine opens with Buchu, Pebbles, Aldehydes, and Rum, settles into a heart of Leather, Cedar, Birch Tar, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Musk and Oakmoss. Moth and Rabbit's La Haine carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a proper Marmite scent - you'll either adore its gritty, industrial edge or find it utterly unwearable. It's a bold, confrontational olfactory statement, not for the faint-hearted. Don't blind buy unless you live for challenging perfumery.

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

Best For:
Fall Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, divisive character, particularly the smoky and animalic accords, makes it unsuitable for professional or formal settings. It's best suited for casual wear, where its unusual personality can be appreciated without causing offence, or for a night out if you aim to make a statement.

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.

  • Eugenol from Nutmeg
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bay laurel Laurus Nobilis Leaf Oil from Bay Leaf
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

La Haine opens with a sharp, almost confrontational metallic blast, softened by bright aldehydes and a boozy hint of rum. This swiftly evolves into a leathery, smoky heart, evoking burnt rubber and birch tar, underpinned by aromatic nutmeg and bay leaf. The base settles into a dark, earthy musk and oakmoss, leaving a trace of industrial grit and a hint of the outdoors. It's an unpolished, urban landscape in a bottle.
