Created by perfumer Christian Carbonnel, Frosted Flame opens soft and powdery with bourbon vanilla and musk, blooms into ylang-ylang, jasmine and mimosa, and warms into oud, black pepper and cinnamon.
Olfactory Pyramid:
What does Frosted Flame smell like? Soft and powdery, then warm and spiced. Powdery notes, bourbon vanilla and musk open it, ylang-ylang, jasmine and Egyptian mimosa form a floral heart, and Indonesian oud, Madagascar black pepper and cinnamon give it a warm, spicy base. Composed by Christian Carbonnel, launched in 2025.
Is it an oud fragrance? Oud sits in the base with pepper and cinnamon, but the powdery vanilla and florals lead, so it reads soft and warm rather than smoky.
Should I sample it first? The 1.5mL sample is the place to start, before the 50mL.
What are the notes in TwentySecondOfMay Frosted Flame? Powdery Notes, Bourbon Vanilla, Musk at the top, Ylang-Ylang, Jasmine, Egyptian Mimosa in the heart, and Indonesian Oud, Madagascar Black Pepper, Cinnamon in the base.
