HeartThe Soul
The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2026 by By Kilian and crafted by perfumer Calice Becker, Forbidden Games 2026 is an unisex floral fruity fragrance that captures the essence of a forbidden indulgence. The composition opens with bright notes of peach and black currant, which are enhanced by the warmth of cinnamon. This playful top gives way to a heart of Bulgarian rose and night-blooming jasmine, before settling into a powdery base of honey, vanilla, and opoponax that reads as an intimate and comforting embrace.
Apply this fragrance close to your skin — it reads best as an intimate scent. The fruity top notes are fleeting but vibrant, so layering with a light spritz of powder can help extend the heart's floral warmth throughout the day.
