Sonia Rykiel Rykiel Homme Grey is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2003, created by Edouard Fléchier. Rykiel Homme Grey opens with Mandarin, Yuzu, Orange Blossom, and Star Anise, settles into a heart of Cyclamen, Rosewood, Cinnamon, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Tonka Bean. Sonia Rykiel's Rykiel Homme Grey carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a seriously underappreciated gem, lauded by those in the know as a versatile, year-round signature scent. It's distinctive enough to stand out but never shouts, blending fresh and warm notes with a subtle complexity that keeps you coming back.

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.

About

Rykiel Homme Grey opens with a bright, zesty burst of yuzu and mandarin, softened by a hint of sweet orange blossom and a curious green apple crunch. The heart introduces a warm, subtly spiced accord of cinnamon and nutmeg, grounded by the elegant woodiness of rosewood. As it settles, a clean musk emerges, mingling with creamy sandalwood and cedar, all smoothed out by a touch of tonka bean.
