Our verdict on Chimilka: Acquired

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.

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.

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.
