Vilhelm Parfumerie London Funk is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Bertrand Duchaufour. London Funk opens with Bergamot, Cardamom, Juniper, and Basil, settles into a heart of Driftwood and Redcurrant Leaf, and dries down to a base of Mate, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Vilhelm Parfumerie's London Funk carries a Statement verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

London Funk is a proper divisive ol' scent, love it or hate it. Some find it a fresh, green wonder, others are saying it smells like a sweaty British Christmas tree or a dodgy men's changing room. Definitely one to sample first - this ain't for blind buying, mate.

Its potent initial projection and unique, sometimes challenging 'funk' make it less suitable for formal or office settings. However, its fresh, green character and good sillage lend it to being a conversational piece in casual and some date situations, especially in warmer weather.

About

Opens with a zesty, almost sparkling hit of bergamot and juniper, underscored by the leafy tang of basil and a hint of cardamom. This energetic start quickly settles into a more complex heart, where redcurrant leaf adds a unique green edge to the dry, salty whisper of driftwood. The base anchors everything with earthy vetiver, warm cedar, creamy sandalwood, and the peculiar, intriguing depth of mate and ambergris, all contributing to its 'funk'.
