Olfiction Salmiakki is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Pia Long. Salmiakki opens with Salt, Anise, and Pepper, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Cedar, and Licorice, and dries down to a base of Cade, Vetiver, Guaiac Wood, and Birch. Olfiction's Salmiakki carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Salmiakki isn't for the faint-hearted; it's a bold, uncompromising take on liquorice that you'll either adore for its daring originality or find utterly challenging.

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

Salmiakki kicks off with a sharp, almost abrasive hit of salty liquorice and black pepper, instantly making its presence known. The heart softens slightly with warm immortelle and dry cedar, before the rich, resinous depths of cade, guaiac wood, and myrrh emerge. It's a dark, woody scent, unexpectedly sweetened by the pervasive anise and liquorice, giving it a unique, almost tar-like complexity that's both aromatic and spicy.
