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 fruity-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.

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.
