1826

1826 is a warm, spicy amber from Histoires de Parfums, composed by Sylvie Jourdet and released in 2001 for women. People describe it as spicy, woody, floral, ambery and citrusy all at once, and about half also find it musky, which reflects how many threads it holds together.

Tangerine and bergamot open it with a sweet, bright citrus. The heart turns warm and spiced: cinnamon and ginger give a dry, glowing heat, while violet adds a soft, powdery sweetness and white flowers a creamy floral layer that keeps the spice from feeling harsh. The base is deep and long-lasting, with incense adding a dry, smoky, resinous note, patchouli an earthy depth, and vanilla, amber and musk a warm, slightly sweet finish.

It is a scent for autumn and winter and for evenings, with a classic, slightly old-world richness rather than modern freshness. Anyone who enjoys cinnamon and incense over a vanilla-amber base will find it rewarding.
