The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Oil Fiction by Juliette Has A Gun is a composition that embodies the brand's distinctive blend of romance and modernity. Launched in 2013, it combines tuberose with warm spices and woody accords to create an enveloping scent that feels both intimate and expansive. The amber and musky base notes add depth and warmth, while the yellow florals and powdery undertones keep the fragrance from feeling too heavy. This is a scent that captures the essence of Juliette Has A Gun's romantic yet bold aesthetic.

How to wear it

One or two sprays are enough to let Oil Fiction develop its rich layers. The warm spices and woody notes project well, but the fragrance is best experienced close to the skin rather than across a room. It pairs well with cooler weather when the warmth of the base notes feels most inviting.
