Launched in 2017 by Frederic Malle and crafted by perfumer Sophia Grojsman, Outrageous! Limited Edition 2017 is a bold composition that balances bright citrus notes with the warmth of white florals and aldehydes. The opening burst of lime, green apple, and grapefruit gives way to a heart of neroli and orange blossom, while musk and ambroxan provide an earthy foundation. This fragrance captures a moment of vibrant freshness, making it both audacious and alluring.

Application Tips
One or two sprays are sufficient to capture its vibrant freshness. The lime and green apple notes fade within a couple of hours, so reapply if you want to maintain that initial burst. It’s best suited for daytime wear when its bright freshness can shine.

Founding perfumer · 55 fragrances · American
As a child, in Belarus, this perfume queen-to-be would run around the garden smelling roses and jasmine, leaving her toys untouched, dismissed. After studying chemistry at university, she emigrated to New York and joined the IFF laboratories where she learned the art of perfumery under the guidance of Ernest Shiftan, one of the greatest American perfumers in history. Sophia was the first perfumer to inverse classical proportions of ingredients in perfumes, having discovered that an overdose of a certain ingredient could propel it to the top of the perfume’s structure. She combined this revolutionary technique with classical perfume structures to create a truly unique aesthetic, one that was to forever shape the art of perfume making. She was also well-known for her endless fascination with rose, a flower she uses in most of her creations. At Frédéric Malle’s request, she applied herself for the first time to the art of scented candles.

The story behind the bottle.
The crisp energy of an early morning walk, where the scent of freshly cut grass mingles with the zesty aroma of citrus fruits.
