Mykonos Inception is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025. Inception opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Orange, and Ginger, settles into a heart of Black Tea, Neroli, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Guaiac Wood, and Lorenox. Mykonos's Inception carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

If you're after that clean, classy, soapy tea and citrus vibe without the designer price tag, Inception is probably the closest you'll get. Most reckon it's a dead ringer for the original, though a few find it a bit too much on the soap. Definitely a crowd-pleaser for the summer.

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.

About

Inception kicks off with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot, lemon, and orange, given a lively zing by fresh ginger. This vibrant opening quickly mellows into a sophisticated heart where a prominent black tea note takes centre stage, subtly spiced with cinnamon and a hint of soft neroli. The dry down is a clean, woody embrace of cedar and guaiac wood, grounded by a gentle musk, leaving a refined and comforting trail.
