Pierre Guillaume Paris Kyphenzé - Citrus Rex is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Pierre Guillaume. Kyphenzé - Citrus Rex opens with Citrus, settles into a heart of Spicy Notes, Tonka Bean, and Sage, and dries down to a base of Resins. Pierre Guillaume Paris's Kyphenzé - Citrus Rex carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Divisive, to say the least. This one's either a quirky trip down memory lane or a scrubber, depending on whether you fancy smelling like an 80s car ashtray. Definitely not a blind buy.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Spring

Its floral, honey and citrus composition leans towards autumn.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Casual

The strong, resinous character and herbal notes make this too assertive for office wear, and its unique scent profile might not appeal to everyone on a date. It's best suited for casual settings where its unconventional nature can be appreciated without offending. The heavy drydown means it's not appropriate for formal events or sport.

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

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

Don't let the name fool you, Kyphenzé - Citrus Rex opens with a fleeting whisper of citrus before quickly delving into a heart of pungent sage and warm spices. A nutty, sweet tonka bean emerges, wrapped in a blanket of honeyed florals. The dry down is thick with sticky resins, settling into a surprisingly heavy, almost stale aroma that lingers on the skin.
