The Story

Launched in 2020 by the Parisian house Ex Nihilo, The Irreverents is a unisex fragrance that embodies the brand's spirit of iconoclasm and refinement. This composition opens with saffron and pink pepper, adding an unexpected spiciness to the sweet caramel and vanilla heart. As it settles into a base of tonka bean, ambergris, and balsamic notes, The Irreverents transforms from a sugary indulgence into a warm, complex embrace.

Application Tips

Apply one or two sprays to pulse points; the spicy top notes are fleeting but impactful. The rich base will develop over time, so it's best used in the evening when its warmth can linger close to your skin.
