Police Icon is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014, created by Céline Ripert. Icon opens with Pink Pepper, Cardamom, and Strawberry, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Lavender, and Rosemary, and dries down to a base of Vanilla and Labdanum. Police's Icon carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Divisive yet intriguing, this one's a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde. Some find it a sweet, modern gem that punches above its weight, others a cheap, generic mess. Performance is similarly all over the shop, so try before you buy.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its moderate performance and sweet, bold character make it a better fit for casual outings or dates than for a serious office or formal setting. While some find it an excellent office scent, the strong sillage reported by others suggests it could be too much for a confined workplace.

About

Opening with an unusual and playful burst of juicy strawberry, spiced up with pink pepper and a hint of cardamom, Icon immediately sets itself apart. It smoothly transitions into a heart of aromatic lavender and earthy patchouli, providing a masculine counterpoint. The journey concludes with a creamy vanilla and warm labdanum base, offering a comforting and somewhat gourmand dry down.
