Perris Monte Carlo Absolue d’Osmanthe Extrait is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2016. Absolue d’Osmanthe Extrait opens with Osmanthus, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Tolu Balsam, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Perris Monte Carlo's Absolue d’Osmanthe Extrait carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A truly gorgeous, apricot-tinged osmanthus with a sophisticated resinous base that many reviewers adore, though some find it a bit too linear for the price point. Definitely a 'love at first sniff' for most, despite some nitpicking about its evolution.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

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

Opens with an elegant bloom of osmanthus, offering its signature apricot fruitiness. This soon deepens into a warm, sensual heart where creamy sandalwood and rich tolu balsam intertwine with labdanum, creating a sophisticated amber-floral embrace. A soft, powdery vanilla undertone adds a touch of luxurious sweetness, grounding the composition in an oriental warmth.
