Simone Andreoli Don't Ask Me Permission is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Simone Andreoli. Don't Ask Me Permission opens with Sugar Cane, Orange, and Lime, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang, Heliotrope, Peach, and Passionfruit, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Ambergris, and Rum. Simone Andreoli's Don't Ask Me Permission carries an Acquired verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one is a total love-it-or-hate-it tropical punch to the face. Expect loud, fruity sweetness with a boozy kick and musky depth that some find intoxicating, others outright abrasive. It's a powerhouse, a statement, and definitely not for the faint of heart.

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:
Spring Summer Fall

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Given its potent sillage and formidable longevity, this isn't one for discreet office wear. It truly shines on a date night or during casual, spirited outings where its bold, tropical nature can demand attention without overwhelming. The strong, sweet profile makes it less suitable for formal events or exercise.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • 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

Don't Ask Me Permission crashes in with a juicy, vibrant lime and orange splash, entwined with bright sugar cane for an immediate sweet-and-sour hit. The heart swells with a tropical cocktail of peach, passionfruit, and exotic ylang-ylang, softened by a powdery heliotrope. It then settles into a warm, boozy embrace of rum, rich sandalwood, and lingering musk, anchored by a subtly animalic ambergris.
