Pictura Fragrans L'esprit Impur is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by DL Jenkins. L'esprit Impur opens with Litsea Cubeba, Cypress, Pepper, and Elemi, settles into a heart of Barley, Moss, Bacon, and Beetroot, and dries down to a base of Cypriol Oil or Nagarmotha, Cade, Musk, and Patchouli. Pictura Fragrans's L'esprit Impur carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

L'esprit Impur is a strange, savoury scent with mushroom, bacon, beetroot and geosmin over a smoky, mossy base. It is far from a crowd-pleaser and that is the point. Bold, odd and made for the adventurous.

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

L'esprit Impur is a unisex scent from Pictura Fragrans, created by DL Jenkins in 2023. It opens with mint, snow, cypress, elemi, litsea cubeba and pepper, a cold, sharp and green start. The heart is the unusual part: mushroom, bacon, beetroot, dill, barley, toast and moss, giving an earthy, savoury and food-like feel. The base brings geosmin, patchouli, cade, cypriol oil or nagarmotha, frankincense, norlimbanol, labdanum and musk, adding damp earth, smoke and resin. It is a daring, earthy and smoky fragrance for people who want something truly different.
