Police Police Potion Arsenic For Her is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Police Potion Arsenic For Her opens with Datura, Cinnamon, and Coconut, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang, Orchid, and Tobacco, and dries down to a base of Patchouli, Tonka Bean, and Myrrh. Police's Police Potion Arsenic For Her carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a wildcard. If you're looking for something that screams niche without the price tag, Potion Arsenic could be your jam. It's divisive, complex, and will definitely get people talking - just be ready for some serious projection and a potentially polarising 'poison' note.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong projection and heavy, sweet, spicy, and amber accords make it unsuitable for office wear, where it might overwhelm. It's best reserved for date nights or evenings out, with some finding it too potent even for casual daytime use given its 'beast mode' performance.

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

  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

A complex brew that kicks off with a fruity, grape-like intensity thanks to datura and rich coconut, spiced up with a hint of cinnamon. As it settles, a lush heart of orchid, ylang-ylang, and tobacco unfurls, leading into a deeply warm and resinous base of patchouli, tonka bean, and myrrh. The overall effect is a sweet, balsamic, and intriguing scent with an almond-like 'poison' edge.
