by Nancy Meiland

Nancy Meiland Parfums Kabosu is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Nancy Meiland. The fragrance opens with Tea, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Osmanthus and Plum, and dries down to a base of Birch, Patchouli, and Tonka Bean.

Our verdict on Kabosu: Favourite

A properly grown-up citrus, Kabosu takes the expected fresh opening and grounds it with a smoky, leathery depth. It's sophisticated, interesting, and far from your average-joe freshie.

Its fresh yet grounded profile makes it versatile for most occasions, performing well in an office setting without being overtly informal. The smoky-leather base might be a bit too intriguing for very formal events or high-energy sports.

About

Kabosu opens with a sharp, zesty burst of bergamot and lemon, immediately brightened by an aromatic waft of tea. This initial freshness quickly deepens as the heart emerges, where the delicate, apricot-like scent of osmanthus blends with the subtle sweetness of plum. The real character arrives in the base, with a prominent smoky leather accord intertwined with the earthy whispers of birch and patchouli, softened by a touch of warm tonka bean. It's a journey from vibrant citrus to a rich, grounded finish.
