Weil Weil De Weil is a Parfum launched in 1971. Weil De Weil opens with Hyacinth, Green Notes, Neroli, and Galbanum, settles into a heart of Rose, Ylang-Ylang, Lily of the Valley, and Honeysuckle, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Oakmoss. Weil's Weil De Weil carries an Acquired verdict, a green-led wear.

A truly classic green chypre that's either 'heavenly' or 'horrible' depending on your skin and taste. If you like your florals sharp, mossy, and with a definite animalic growl, this forgotten gem is a must-try.

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.

About

Weil De Weil opens with an assertive blast of green notes and galbanum, sharpened by bright tangerine and neroli, giving it a cool, crisp, almost bracing quality. This verdant introduction soon softens into a lush floral heart where hyacinth, narcissus, and lily of the valley bloom with a slightly indolic sweetness. The dry-down reveals a sophisticated base of oakmoss, vetiver, and sandalwood, underpinned by a distinct, earthy civet and musk, adding a sensual, animalic depth that grounds the freshness.
