Nusuk Gladius is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2025. Gladius opens with Bergamot, Raspberry, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Cardamom and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Suede, Amber, and Cedar. Nusuk's Gladius carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

Divisive and controversial, Gladius is either a beast or a bust. If you're lucky enough to get a good batch, it's a bold, fruity-suede powerhouse; otherwise, prepare for disappointment and an early fade.

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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its enormous sillage and eternal longevity, when it performs, make it too potent for an office setting. It's perfectly suited for dates and evening wear, with its seductive, warm notes, and could work casually if applied lightly. The intensity also makes it unsuitable for sport.

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

Gladius opens with a vibrant, juicy burst of raspberry and tangerine, brightened by bergamot, before quickly settling into a spiced heart of warm cardamom and nutmeg. The dry-down reveals a smooth, luxurious suede, deepened by rich amber and grounded by earthy cedar, creating a complex and enveloping scent.
