Jacques PolgeChristopher Sheldrake

"Sycomore Eau de Parfum is Chanel's modern Les Exclusifs interpretation of the house's Sycomore theme, centered on smoky vetiver and polished woods. Official Chanel copy describes it as woody, ambery, and intense, while multiple reviews consistently highlight an earthy, dry, elegant forest-like character. The composition is widely associated with vetiver supported by cedar and vanilla, with some third-party sources also describing softer floral or leathery nuances depending on concentration and era. Compared with the earlier Sycomore Eau de Toilette, the Eau de Parfum is generally described as smoother, rounder, and slightly more plush in texture. It is a niche-leaning Chanel composition appreciated by vetiver lovers for its restrained luxury rather than overt sweetness or crowd-pleasing projection."

Fun Facts

The Sycomore name traces back to a Chanel perfume created in 1930 under the guidance of Gabrielle Chanel.

A later Sycomore Extrait de Parfum was introduced in 2022, showing that Chanel treats Sycomore as an evolving prestige fragrance theme rather than a one-off release.

Reviews Summary

“Reviews consistently describe Sycomore EDP as a refined, earthy, smoky vetiver with crisp woods and an understated Chanel polish. Wearers often praise its mysterious, clean-wooded elegance and all-day wearability, though some find it sharper, more masculine, or more rooty than expected. Several reviewers note that projection is controlled rather than loud, with the scent becoming softer and closer to the skin over time. Overall sentiment is strongly positive among fans of dry woody vetiver fragrances, but it is seen as more connoisseur-oriented than broadly crowd-pleasing.”
