Vivamor Parfums Reserve Exclusif is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Francis Kurkdjian and Jérôme di Marino. Reserve Exclusif opens with Gingerbread and Sugar Cane, settles into a heart of Davana, Whisky, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Cashmere Wood, Amber, and Oakmoss. Vivamor Parfums's Reserve Exclusif carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one's a proper festive cracker, but be warned: it's not for everyone. If you like your gourmands with a boozy kick, you'll love it. If you're a recovering alcoholic, you'll probably hate it. It's a proper statement, though, and definitely unique.

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

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

Its potent extrait concentration and heavy sillage make it unsuitable for an office setting. However, its cozy, boozy gourmand character makes it excellent for dates and casual evening wear, particularly in cooler temperatures. While rich, it could work for some formal events, though it's not classically elegant.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

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

Reserve Exclusif opens with an indulgent blast of sugary gingerbread, evoking warm, toasted holiday treats. As it develops, a robust whiskey note emerges, mingling with the sophisticated warmth of rose and davana, adding a fruity, slightly herbal twist. The dry down settles into a cozy embrace of cashmere wood and earthy oakmoss, underpinned by a rich amber, balancing the initial sweetness with a woody, comforting depth.
