Worth Miss Worth is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1977, created by Odette Breil-Radius. Miss Worth opens with Rhubarb, Anise, Bergamot, and Ylang-Ylang, settles into a heart of Caraway, Orange Blossom, Cypress, and Rose, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. Worth's Miss Worth carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

Miss Worth is a forgotten gem for vintage lovers. You'll either adore its subtle complexity or find it simply not for you, especially if modern trends are your usual bag. Those who get it, really get it.

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

Best For:
Spring Fall

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Its subtle sillage and soft projection make it office-safe, though some reviews suggest it's too 'daytime casual' for formal events. The vintage floral and woody nature leans towards relaxed, daytime wear.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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 bright, aldehydic pop of peach and blackcurrant, underpinned by a green rhubarb tang, then transitions into a complex floral heart where carnation, rose, and violet subtly intertwine with warm spices like clove and cinnamon. The dry-down is a soft, woody embrace of oakmoss, amber, and vanilla, with a whisper of raspberry adding a fruity sweetness to the rich, resinous base.
