The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016, Vilhelm Parfumerie's Do Not Disturb is a creation by perfumer Jérôme Epinette that seamlessly blends soft spiciness with earthy musk and powdery florals. The fragrance opens with pink pepper and carrot, offering a subtle yet engaging freshness. As it evolves, jasmine and iris add depth to the composition, creating an intriguing interplay between warmth and coolness. Patchouli grounds the scent with its rich earthiness, while white musk and ambroxan provide a smooth, enveloping finish that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to pulse points for a balanced experience. The fragrance builds gradually, so it's best not to layer heavily. Its powdery and musky notes make it ideal for evening wear when you want a scent that evolves throughout the night.
