Van Cleef & Arpels Tsar 2025 is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Tsar 2025 opens with Rosemary and Mugwort, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Amber. Van Cleef & Arpels's Tsar 2025 carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a divisive re-release, not entirely sure if it's a blessing or a curse. Some reckon it's a faithful ode to the original, others are fuming it's a completely different beast under the same legendary name. Proceed with caution and a healthy dose of sniff-testing.

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.

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

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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

Tsar 2025 kicks off with a punchy, herbaceous greenery from rosemary and mugwort, instantly clean and invigorating. This aromatic opening is swiftly softened by a heart of elegant jasmine and a hint of rosy geranium, adding a sophisticated floral depth. The base rounds out with a warm, slightly resinous amber and a classic woody anchor, providing a smooth, lasting finish that balances its initial zest.
