WIDIAN IV is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2015, created by Jean-Claude Astier and Ali Aljaberi. IV opens with Bergamot, Plum, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of White Flowers and Rose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. WIDIAN's IV carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

A truly divisive scent: some find it a delightful, smooth fruity floral, others a cloying, unoriginal mess. Best sampled first to see which camp you fall into.

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

Black IV opens with a lush blend of plum and blackcurrant, given a subtle lift by bergamot. As it settles, a soft heart of white flowers and rose emerges, creating a powdery, elegant floral impression. The dry-down reveals a warm, creamy base of vanilla, musk, and sandalwood, with a touch of soft leather adding a sophisticated depth. It's a comforting yet refined composition.
