Charade

Old-world glamour with a rebellious streak. Charade is a sophisticated white-floral extrait that pairs old-world glamour with a darker, more contemporary edge. Created by perfumer Andreas Wilhelm for Sarah Baker, it centres on lush tuberose and ylang-ylang, contrasted with leather, tea, resinous styrax and warm benzoin. The Story Charade draws on 1950s-era elegance and the 1963 film of the same name, and has been described as a tuberose-on-leather chypre. The house frames it as a nostalgic floral built around creamy French tuberose, with honeyed ylang-ylang giving it a bold, sophisticated character and a mossy, vetiver and sandalwood base giving it a timeless feel. Its keywords: blossoming, sophistication, classicism. It is ideal for anyone who loves classic white florals but wants something less predictable and more modern. How It Smells Opening Opulent and floral, with buttery tuberose and honeyed ylang-ylang creating a rich, almost vintage elegance. It feels luminous, floral and glamorous. Heart The fragrance becomes more textured and intriguing. Leather and tea add dryness and a slightly rebellious character, while benzoin and styrax bring warmth and resinous depth. Dry Down Honey, amber, vetiver, moss and sandalwood give Charade a smooth, earthy and sensual finish: warmer and smoother, a refined, lingering trail.
