V Canto Brun is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2022, created by Paolo Terenzi. Brun opens with Musk, Heliotrope, Ambergris, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Jasmin Sambac, Ylang-Ylang, and Magnolia, and dries down to a base of Cambodian Oud, Vanilla Blossom, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. V Canto's Brun carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Brun is a warm, creamy Extrait that pairs white florals with sandalwood, vanilla and a dark thread of oud. Rich and a little mysterious, it suits anyone who wants a skin-hugging scent with some depth.

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

Brun opens with ambergris, heliotrope, clary sage and musk, a soft, slightly salty and powdery start that feels more skin than perfume. The heart turns floral and creamy, with ylang-ylang, jasmine sambac and magnolia adding a lush, rounded sweetness. The base settles into sandalwood, vanilla blossom, Cambodian oud and patchouli, giving this Extrait a warm, woody, gently smoky finish that feels comforting and a touch dark.
