Sarah Baker Perfumes Far from the Madding Crowd is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020, created by Miguel Matos. Far from the Madding Crowd opens with Bergamot, Petitgrain, Plum, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Myrtle, Jasmine, Heliotrope, and Eucalyptus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Oakmoss, and Castoreum. Sarah Baker Perfumes's Far from the Madding Crowd carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a proper British countryside romp, a 'roller coaster of sensations' as some put it. It's divisive - some sniff out 'glue-like' notes, others are smitten by its unique, artistic flair. A true niche standout, not for the faint of heart or those stuck on commercial crowd-pleasers.

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.

About

Far from the Madding Crowd opens with an energetic burst of green, herbal eucalyptus and myrtle, reminiscent of a wild botanical gin. This vibrant freshness then settles into a juicy heart of blackcurrant and plum, intertwined with subtle floral nuances. The base is an earthy embrace of woody cedar and rich oakmoss, given a distinctive edge by a touch of animalic castoreum, creating a warm, natural, and slightly untamed aroma.
