Vilhelm Parfumerie Chimilka is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Jérôme Epinette. Chimilka opens with Suede, Mandarin, Cardamom, and Peach, settles into a heart of Immortelle, Leather, Oakmoss, and Violet, and dries down to a base of Sugar Cane, Musk, Amber, and Patchouli. Vilhelm Parfumerie's Chimilka carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Chimilka by Vilhelm Parfumerie is a polarising peach-leather punch, splitting opinion between those who adore its modern, juicy sweetness and those who find it an overpowering 'beast mode' fragrance. If you're after a bold, statement-making peach with an unexpected leathery twist, give it a go, but be prepared for a strong reaction.

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
Also Works:
Summer Fall

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its strong projection and longevity make it less suitable for office environments, where it could be overwhelming. However, the seductive fruity-leather profile is a clear winner for dates and evening events, while its unique modern vibe makes it a compelling choice for casual outings.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Opens with a rush of juicy, sun-ripened peach, brightened by mandarin and a whisper of cardamom. A soft, suede-like leather quickly emerges, intertwined with the complex, apricot-like sweetness of osmanthus and a powdery violet. As it settles, an earthy patchouli and warm amber entwine with a sugary musk, leaving a sweet, lasting impression that’s both fruity and unexpectedly rich.
