CoSTUME NATIONAL

Explore 24 CoSTUME NATIONAL fragrances — notes, longevity, sillage and community ratings, matched to how you want to smell. The house dates from 1986, founded by Ennio Capasa.

Patchouli runs through the range here, joined by bergamot, rose and cardamom. The house builds on woody, warm spicy and amber accords that appear throughout the catalogue. Citrus, fresh spicy and aromatic notes turn up alongside them.

The materials and accords combine into a profile that moves between resinous warmth and brighter citrus edges. Costume National Homme sits within this framework. The repeated use of patchouli and bergamot gives the lineup a consistent thread, while rose and cardamom add further detail to the spicy and floral sides of the compositions. Woody and amber tones carry through the different releases, with fresh spicy and aromatic elements providing contrast.
