Riiffs Perfumes Imperial Blue is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2021. Imperial Blue opens with Orange Blossom, Apple, and Mint, settles into a heart of Ambroxan, Geranium, and Clary Sage, and dries down to a base of Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, and Frankincense. Riiffs Perfumes's Imperial Blue carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a solid, budget-friendly alternative to Versace Eros. It's a mass-pleasing scent that gets the job done without breaking the bank, though don't expect beast-mode performance.

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.

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

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

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

Imperial Blue opens with a crisp, juicy apple and a bright, slightly sweet orange blossom, energised by a hint of mint. As it settles, the aromatic heart emerges with clary sage and the modern amber warmth of Ambrofix. The base grounds the fragrance in smooth sandalwood and creamy tonka bean, softened by a touch of warm frankincense. It's a fresh, blue-leaning scent with a sweet, woody finish.
