The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2014 and crafted by perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin, Smoke for the Soul is an aromatic woody fragrance that captures the essence of a mysterious smoky ambiance. The opening notes of cannabis and camphor create a sharp, intriguing contrast against the warm, leathery base notes, with green tobacco adding depth and complexity to the composition. By Kilian's commitment to distinctive and bold fragrances is evident in this creation, which stands out for its daring blend of unconventional elements.

How to wear it

Apply one or two sprays to pulse points for a balanced experience. The smoky and camphor notes are strong initially but settle into a more nuanced profile over time, making it perfect for evening wear.
