Decadence is a floral fragrance from Marc Jacobs, composed by Ann Gottlieb and Annie Buzantian and released in 2015. Flowers lead, with a woody side and lighter spicy and sweet touches.
Plum, saffron and iris open with a dark, juicy fruitiness, a warm, leathery spice and a cool powder. The heart brings jasmine sambac, Bulgarian rose and orris root, which give a rich, velvety and slightly powdery floral bouquet. In the base, liquidambar adds a sweet, balsamic resin, while vetiver and papyrus give a dry, slightly smoky woodiness.
Wearers are split between moderate and long-lasting longevity, and sillage is moderate or strong. It is voted equally for autumn and winter and mostly for evenings. It suits dinners and dressier occasions, and someone who likes rich, plum-tinged florals with a dry woody base, rather than fresh or light scents.
Decadence — unisex fragrance by Marc Jacobs (released 2015). Top notes: Plum, Saffron, Iris. Heart notes: Orris, Jasmine Sambac, Bulgarian Rose. Base notes: Vetiver, Papyrus, Liquidambar. — Parfica open fragrance database
