Hypnotic Poison Extrait de Parfum
Hypnotic Poison Extrait de Parfum departs sharply from the original EDT's coconut-plum sweetness and opens instead on bitter almond and licorice — an almost medicinal, assertive intro that reads as darker and more singular.

By the editors · 2 min readHypnotic Poison Extrait de Parfum departs sharply from the original EDT's coconut-plum sweetness and opens instead on bitter almond and licorice — an almost medicinal, assertive intro that reads as darker and more singular. Jasmine sambac and orange blossom emerge in the heart, adding white floral brightness but not softening the almond quality so much as recontextualising it.
The base is the true statement: vanilla, tonka bean, amber, and sandalwood build a sustained, warm gourmand finish that lasts for hours. The Extrait reads as an intensive refinement of the Poison concept — stripped of tropical frivolity and pushed toward something more deliberate and close-worn. Better suited to cool evenings than the original.
