Launched in 2017 by Vilhelm Parfumerie and crafted by perfumer Jérôme Epinette, Harlem Bloom is a unisex Oriental Floral fragrance that captures the essence of urban sophistication. The composition opens with saffron and angelica, creating an intriguing metallic edge before transitioning into a heart of damask rose and violet. The base notes of suede, ebony, and warm spices ground the scent in earthy luxury. This fragrance is neither entirely floral nor woody but instead exists as a harmonious blend of powdery warmth and subtle musk.

Application Tips
Harlem Bloom is best applied lightly — its powdery and spicy accords emerge gradually over time. It pairs well with cooler evenings but can be worn year-round for an understated yet luxurious scent.
