Salome

Papillon Artisan Perfumes Salome is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2015. The fragrance opens with Bergamot and Bitter Orange, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Orange Blossom, and Hyraceum, and dries down to a base of Castoreum, Birch, Patchouli, and Oakmoss.

Our verdict on Salome: Acquired

Salome is a divisive beast, a love-it-or-hate-it animalic chypre that demands attention. It's a modern classic for those brave enough to wear something truly carnal and vintage-inspired.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong sillage and potent animalic character, Salome is far too provocative for an office setting or casual wear. It truly shines for date nights and formal events, where its intense, sensual allure can be appreciated.

About

A complex opening of citrus and indolic white florals soon gives way to a full-bodied, leathery heart, rich with hyraceum and a whisper of tobacco. The base settles into a dark, earthy blend of castoreum, moss, cumin, and styrax, creating a sensuous and unapologetically animalic warmth that lingers with a hint of vanilla.
