About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

In the City of Sin is a 2012 release from Kilian's In the City line, a floral fruity gourmand that leans heavily on fruit and warmth. The top notes are not listed, but the heart reveals plum, apricot, Turkish rose, and incense, while the base grounds the composition with Atlas cedar and patchouli. The main accords—fruity at 100%, warm spicy at 93%, woody at 72%, sweet at 71%, rose at 62%, and aromatic at 62%—paint a picture of a scent that is lush and enveloping, with a distinct spicy-woody undercurrent.

This is a fragrance for collectors who appreciate a bold, fruit-forward gourmand with a smoky, resinous twist. The plum and apricot offer a jammy richness, but the incense and cedar keep it from becoming cloying, adding depth and a slightly austere edge. It suits those who enjoy perfumes that are both sweet and woody, and it performs well in cooler weather or evening settings. The rose adds a classic floral touch, but this is not a demure scent—it's opulent and confident, a statement piece for a collector's wardrobe.
