Rogue Perfumery Chypre-Siam is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Manuel Cross. Chypre-Siam opens with Lime and Basil, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Spicy Notes, Leather, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Rogue Perfumery's Chypre-Siam carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Chypre-Siam is a glorious, unapologetically vintage chypre that splits opinion right down the middle. For some, it's a classy, authentic nod to the past; for others, it's a dated, overwhelming "grandmother's scent". If you crave oakmoss and proper perfumery, this is your jam.

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.

Given its strong projection and old-school, complex profile, Chypre-Siam isn't ideal for a typical office environment. Its elegant character and impressive longevity make it perfect for formal events or sophisticated date nights where you want to make a statement.

About

Opens with a vivid burst of kaffir lime and green basil, sharp and invigorating. This bright freshness soon gives way to a lush heart of creamy ylang-ylang and intoxicating jasmine, deepening to a rich, mossy base. Animalic civet, earthy oakmoss, and spicy woods intertwine, creating a complex, traditionally structured chypre with a hint of tropical flair.
