Parfums d’Elmar Momona is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Christian Carbonnel. Momona opens with Orange, Mandarin, Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Jasmine, Lotus, and Cinnamon, and dries down to a base of White Chocolate, Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Parfums d’Elmar's Momona carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Momona is a rich, spiced gourmand: cardamom and saffron up top, white chocolate and caramel underneath. It is loud, sweet and indulgent, built for cold days and people who like dessert in a bottle.

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.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Eugenia Caryophyllus Leaf Oil from Clove
  • Limonene from Orange

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

The opening is bright and spicy, with orange, mandarin, saffron, cardamom, ginger and pepper all competing for attention. The heart is wide and busy, mixing passionfruit, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg and tea with lotus, orange blossom, jasmine and almond. Then the base turns sweet and creamy with white chocolate, caramel, vanilla, amber and tonka bean, held up by musk, sandalwood, guaiac wood and benzoin. It is a warm, spicy gourmand with a lot going on.
