Tauer Perfumes Pentachords White is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Andy Tauer. Tauer Perfumes's Pentachords White carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This is a proper love-it-or-hate-it scent. Pentachords White is an avant-garde iris-violet confection that swings from sophisticated to seriously weird, with strong opinions on both sides. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

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.

Its moderate longevity and subtle sillage make it suitable for office and casual wear, as it's unlikely to overpower. While it has an interesting quality for a date, its divisive nature means it's less of a crowd-pleaser for formal events. It's too soft and refined for sport.

About

Pentachords White opens with a distinctive, almost metallic whisper of violet and iris, bright and clean. This initial floral crispness soon melts into a powdery heart, where the violet's subtle sweetness and the iris's earthy-yet-delicate character are enveloped by a creamy vanilla. As it dries down, a soft, warm amber emerges, grounded by the gentle, refined presence of rosewood, creating a minimalist yet complex skin scent.
