by Jérôme Epinette

Vilhelm Parfumerie Great Lord is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Jérôme Epinette. The fragrance opens with Plum, Cardamom, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Osmanthus, Violet, Immortelle, and Leather, and dries down to a base of Sugar Cane, Patchouli, Musk, and Amber.

Our verdict on Great Lord: Acquired

Great Lord aims for opulent sophistication but lands in divisive territory. Some laud its richness and balance, while others find it too flat, synthetic, or strangely reminiscent of a fast food joint. Not a safe blind buy, this one is an acquired taste.

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Given its strong, warm spicy and leathery accords, Great Lord is best suited for evening wear and special occasions where its rich complexity can shine without overwhelming. Its intensity makes it less ideal for casual daytime or athletic activities, and potentially too much for an office setting.

About

Opens with a boozy, jammy plum and bright mandarin, spiced up by cardamom. This juicy introduction quickly gives way to a complex heart where leathery facets intertwine with the unique, apricot-like sweetness of osmanthus, herbaceous immortelle, and earthy oakmoss. The dry down is a warm embrace of musky amber, punctuated by a sugary sweetness that lingers, leaving an undeniably rich and somewhat challenging trail.
