Vivienne Westwood Anglomania is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2005, created by Dominique Ropion. Anglomania opens with Cardamom, Coriander, and Tea, settles into a heart of Rose, Violet, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, and Vanilla. Vivienne Westwood's Anglomania carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

Anglomania is a bold, divisive rose-leather concoction for the unapologetically edgy. It's not a crowd-pleaser for everyone, but for those who get it, it's an intensely loved, signature-worthy scent that transcends its 2005 launch date.

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.

Its bold, long-lasting nature and strong projection make it less suitable for an office environment. However, its sexy, intriguing character with rose, leather, and spice makes it perfect for dates and evening formal events, particularly in cooler weather.

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.

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

Opens with a distinctive, almost medicinal green tea and spiced cardamom kick. This quickly evolves into a heart where a rich, dark rose entwines with powdery violet and a hint of nutmeg's warmth. The dry-down settles into a sensual leather, underscored by a resinous amber and a touch of creamy vanilla, leaving a lasting impression of sophisticated rebellion. It's a journey from fresh spice to warm, complex allure.
