Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase & Scandal Pour Homme Extase Perfume: Notes & Bottles

Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase and Scandal Pour Homme Extase Eau de Parfum bottles floating against neon light streaks

Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase and Scandal Pour Homme Extase are a new fruity amber Eau de Parfum duo in the Scandal line, announced in September 2026. The women's scent is built on apricot, benzoin and patchouli, the men's on mandarin, caramel and musks.

Status: Announced, not yet on sale. Price, release date and markets haven't been confirmed, and details may change.

According to Olfastory, the pair was announced on 24 September 2026 and the notes were published in early October 2026.

Updated 15 October 2026: no listing at jeanpaulgaultier.com, and the main perfume retailers don't list either fragrance.

Jean Paul Gaultier's other new release is the Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male & Divine Collector Edition 2026, a set of collector bottles for two of its other lines.

When Will the Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase Duo Launch?

Jean Paul Gaultier hasn't announced an official release date. Olfastory dates the announcement of both fragrances to 24 September 2026 and the publication of their notes to early October 2026. Mallorca Duty Free has published product copy for Scandal Extase, which suggests travel retail may be among the first channels to carry it. No date has been confirmed for any market.

Price

Jean Paul Gaultier hasn't announced a price for either perfume in any market.

Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase Fragrance Notes

Jean Paul Gaultier hasn't published a note pyramid on its own site. Olfastory and ScentAdvice each list three notes per fragrance, one per tier.

Scandal Extase

  • Top: apricot nectar
  • Heart: benzoin
  • Base: patchouli

Scandal Pour Homme Extase

  • Top: mandarin
  • Heart: caramel
  • Base: "torrid musks" (the ScentAdvice Instagram caption says "hot musks")

What Does Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase Smell Like?

Based on the listed notes, Scandal Extase opens on apricot, moves into resinous benzoin and settles on patchouli. Scandal Pour Homme Extase pairs citrus mandarin with a caramel heart and a musk base.

Mallorca Duty Free's product copy describes the women's perfume this way: "Welcome aboard the Ecstasy Express! Scandal Extase can't be explained, only felt. Vibrant, electrifying, intoxicating — it makes a powerful impression from the first moment. Apricot nectar leads the dance with its luscious, golden radiance, while benzoin and patchouli prolong the experience with a deeply addictive intensity."

Scandal Extase keeps the original Scandal's patchouli but drops its honey and gardenia. Pour Homme Extase replaces the original's clary sage, tonka bean and vetiver.

Bottles and Packaging

  • Scandal Extase uses the faceted Scandal bottle with the gold legs-in-the-air cap. The glass is iridescent red-to-blue with a gold SCANDAL label, and the box is pink-red iridescent.
  • Scandal Pour Homme Extase uses the square bottle with the gold crown cap. The glass is iridescent blue-purple-green, and the box is blue iridescent.
  • Both boxes carry a gold "EXTASE" plaque. The campaign image shows the two bottles together on a dark teal-and-pink light-streak background.

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Not yet confirmed
  • Europe: Not yet confirmed (no announcement for any European country, including Poland)
  • Other markets: Not yet confirmed. Mallorca Duty Free has product copy online but no confirmed date.

Checked 15 October 2026: no listing at jeanpaulgaultier.com, and no listings at the major perfume retailers.

What Makes the Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase Duo Different?

  • A new pair in the Scandal series: like Le Parfum, Absolu, Intense and Elixir (January 2026), Extase comes as a women's and men's duo.
  • Three notes per fragrance: each scent lists only one note per tier, and Olfastory classes both as fruity ambers.
  • Described as a limited edition: Mallorca Duty Free's copy ends "Scandal Extase, the most outrageous Jean Paul Gaultier limited edition yet." Jean Paul Gaultier hasn't confirmed this on its own site.

For other fruity and sweet flanker launches, see the Rabanne Fame Gummies Mini Trio. The Dolce&Gabbana Velvet Amber Sage is another amber release. You can also browse all fragrance releases.

Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Perfume: Price, Notes & Where to Buy

Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Absolu de Parfum bottle in textured gold beside vanilla pods and crème brûlée

Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Absolu de Parfum is a 35% concentration vanilla fragrance built on Cristal and Bourbon vanilla absolutes. It costs €250 for 100 ml and went on sale at maisonmataha.com on 14 October 2026. The French niche fragrance house created it as a stronger reinterpretation of its crème brûlée-inspired icon, Escapade Gourmande.

Updated 15 October 2026: in stock at maisonmataha.com (EU and international stores) and at Luckyscent (US).

When Did the Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Launch?

Maison Mataha hasn't announced an official release date. The product listing went live on maisonmataha.com on 14 October 2026, and fragrance news accounts on Instagram reported it as "out now" the same week. By 15 October 2026, it was also listed and in stock at Luckyscent in the US.

Price

Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru comes in one size, 100 ml. On Maison Mataha's own storefronts, it is priced at:

  • Europe: €250 (EU store)
  • US: $290 (international store)
  • UK: £220 (international store)
  • Canada: CA$415
  • UAE: AED 1,050

Luckyscent lists it at $290 in the US. For comparison, the original Escapade Gourmande Extrait de Parfum (100 ml) costs €190, $215 or £164 on the brand site.

Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Fragrance Notes

Maison Mataha's official pyramid:

  • Top: Cristal vanilla absolute, Peru balsam essence
  • Heart: black sugar accord, tonka bean absolute
  • Base: Bourbon vanilla absolute, musk accord

What Does Maison Mataha Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Smell Like?

According to the official notes, it opens on vanilla and resinous Peru balsam. Caramelised black sugar and tonka bean follow in the heart, and a second vanilla with musk sits at the base. Like the original, it is built around the memory of crème brûlée. According to Maison Mataha, the two vanilla absolutes give it "more richness, texture and sensuality." The brand also says the black sugar reveals an "intensely caramelised facet" and the musks extend it into a "velvety, enveloping" trail.

Crème brûlée is a recurring theme this season, with launches such as the Gisou Crème Brûlée Collection.

Both share the crème brûlée theme, black sugar, tonka and musk. Grand Cru moves black sugar to the heart and adds two named vanilla absolutes and Peru balsam.

Where to Buy

  • US: Maison Mataha ($290), Luckyscent ($290)
  • UK: Maison Mataha (£220); UK retailers not yet confirmed
  • Canada: Maison Mataha (CA$415)
  • Europe: Maison Mataha EU store (€250), serving France and Poland, among other countries
  • Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added. The brand site also lists AED 1,050 for the UAE.

Checked 15 October 2026: in stock at maisonmataha.com (EU and international stores) and at Luckyscent (US). Maison Mataha lists 194 points of sale in 36 countries, but specific retailers stocking Grand Cru are not yet confirmed. According to the brand, orders from its own site include complimentary worldwide shipping and a complimentary Discovery Set.

What Makes the Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Different?

  • It is labelled an Absolu de Parfum at 35% concentration, while the original is an Extrait de Parfum.
  • It names two separate vanilla absolutes, Cristal and Bourbon, plus Peru balsam essence, none of which appear in the original's pyramid.
  • It comes in a textured gold bottle with a gold flower-shaped cap.

Formula and Packaging

  • Escapade Gourmande Grand Cru Absolu de Parfum: According to Maison Mataha, it uses natural Cristal and Bourbon vanilla absolutes, tonka bean absolute and Peru balsam. It comes in a 100 ml textured gold bottle, and the brand says it is conceived and crafted in France.

Other gourmand vanilla launches this season include the D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Extrait de Parfum and the Balmain Vanille Sculptée Eau de Parfum.

Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male & Divine Collector Edition 2026: Price, Notes & Where to Buy

Gaultier Divine Collector Edition Eau de Parfum bottle in gold mesh with red crystals among white lilies and meringue swirls

Jean Paul Gaultier's Le Male Collector Edition Eau de Toilette and Gaultier Divine Collector Edition Eau de Parfum are tarot-themed holiday 2026 bottles. Both contain the original juices, so only the bottle and case change. In the UK, Notino sells the 125 ml Le Male for £128.00 and the 100 ml Divine for £156.00, and both were on sale by 15 October 2026. The two perfumes are sold separately, not as a boxed set.

Updated 15 October 2026: Both bottles are in stock at Notino UK and Notino PL. There is no confirmed US listing yet. Because these are limited editions, stock can change quickly.

This is one of several dressed-up holiday 2026 bottles, along with the Dior J'adore Music Box Holiday 2026.

Jean Paul Gaultier has also announced a new Scandal duo, Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal Extase and Scandal Pour Homme Extase.

When Did the Jean Paul Gaultier Collector Editions 2026 Launch?

Jean Paul Gaultier hasn't announced an official release date. ScentAdvice posted a first look on Instagram and lists both bottles as 2026 collector editions. By 15 October 2026, both were on sale and in stock at Notino UK and Notino PL. On that date, Jean Paul Gaultier's UK and France collector pages did not yet show them.

Price

  • UK (Notino): Le Male Collector Edition EDT 125 ml, £128.00. Gaultier Divine Collector Edition EDP 100 ml, £156.00.
  • Poland (Notino): Le Male Collector Edition EDT 125 ml, 651 zł. Gaultier Divine Collector Edition EDP 100 ml, 791 zł.
  • US: Not yet announced.

Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male & Divine Collector Edition Fragrance Notes

Jean Paul Gaultier hasn't published a pyramid for these editions on its own sites. Notino UK lists the following notes.

Le Male Collector Edition Eau de Toilette (aromatic amber fougère)

  • Top: mint
  • Heart: lavender
  • Base: vanilla

Gaultier Divine Collector Edition Eau de Parfum (floral, marine, gourmand; perfumer Quentin Bisch, per Notino)

  • Top: salty note
  • Heart: meringue
  • Base: lily

What Does Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male & Divine Collector Edition Smell Like?

Le Male opens with mint, moves to lavender and settles on vanilla. Notino describes "a distinct minty scent", then "iconic lavender... reminiscent of the purity of classic men's shaving soap", rounded off by "sensual vanilla".

Divine starts with a salty, sea-like note, then a snow meringue, and ends on lily. Notino calls the meringue "delicate, delicious and gourmand" and says the lily lends "a distinctive, radiantly feminine character".

The fragrances themselves are unchanged. Retailer visuals describe the editions as "same fragrance, different outfit".

The 2026 bottles are not to be confused with the earlier winter-train and tartan collector bottles. Those are still listed on jeanpaulgaultier.com US as "Last units": the Gaultier Divine Collector EDP 3.4 oz at $182 and the Le Male Elixir Collector Parfum at $180.

Where to Buy

Checked 15 October 2026: Both bottles were in stock at Notino UK and Notino PL. Neither was listed at jeanpaulgaultier.com US, Sephora US, or Jean Paul Gaultier's UK and France sites.

You can browse all our fragrance releases for more holiday launches.

What Makes the Jean Paul Gaultier Collector Editions 2026 Different?

  • Tarot theme: Notino describes a secret festive evening with candlelight and a tarot deck on the table. Campaign images frame both bottles in ornate, gold tarot-card-style borders on a deep red background.
  • Gold mesh with stones: Le Male's torso is set with clear stones in a studded pattern. Divine's corset has red stones arranged in a V-shaped corset pattern.
  • Unchanged juices: Only the bottle and the red-and-gold case are new.

For another gold-dressed limited edition, see the FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Edition.

Formula and Packaging

  • Le Male Collector Edition EDT: Notino lists spearmint leaf oil, lavender oil and vanillin among the ingredients. The case is designed like a tarot deck "full of symbols and hidden meanings", according to Notino.
  • Gaultier Divine Collector Edition EDP: Notino credits the formula to Quentin Bisch and lists vanillin and jasmine oil among the ingredients. The bottle comes in a tarot-themed red-and-gold case.

FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Perfume: Release Date, Price, Notes & Where to Buy

FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Extrait de Parfum bottle with glossy red cap and red lettering on a white background

FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Extrait de Parfum is a limited-edition saffron take on Angel Dust, adding Safraleine and Safranal to the original. The Dutch fragrance house FUGAZZI made it to celebrate five years of Angel Dust. The 100 ml bottle costs €205 at Dutch retailer Skins and on FUGAZZI's own site.

It arrives in the same season as FUGAZZI Beehive Yourself, a De Bijenkorf exclusive released on 1 October 2026 at €205 for 100 ml.

Updated 15 October 2026: in stock at Skins (€205) and on fugazzifragrances.com (€205). Because it's a limited edition, stock can change quickly. FUGAZZI also said on Instagram on 15 October 2026 that US and UK launches are coming soon.

When Did the FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Launch?

FUGAZZI hasn't announced an official release date for Angel Dust Red Gold. ScentAdvice reported the fragrance on 2 October 2026 and quoted Skins' listing, noting that it "seems to have launched exclusively to Skins (NL/BE)." FUGAZZI then added it to its own online store on 15 October 2026.

Price

The Red Gold Edition costs €205 for 100 ml at both Skins and FUGAZZI. That matches the 100 ml Angel Dust Extrait de Parfum. FUGAZZI sells the Red Gold Edition in the 100 ml size only.

FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Fragrance Notes

FUGAZZI hasn't published a top, heart and base pyramid for this edition. The brand lists these key notes:

  • Pink Pepper
  • Cashmere
  • White Amber
  • Dark Wood
  • Safraleine and Safranal (the new additions)

Skins describes the fragrance as woody amber and lists pink pepper, amber and Cashmeran as its notes.

What Does FUGAZZI Angel Dust Red Gold Smell Like?

According to FUGAZZI, the change is in the opening. Safraleine and Safranal give it a saffron note. The heart and base keep the Angel Dust structure of cashmere woods, white amber and soft musk. In the brand's words, the saffron creates "a radiant saffron glow that feels warm, luminous, and irresistibly addictive." FUGAZZI's tagline for the edition is: "A different opening. The same obsession."

Angel Dust vs Angel Dust Red Gold Edition

All details below come from FUGAZZI's own site, checked 15 October 2026.

All three are built around cashmere and white amber. The Red Gold Edition keeps the Extrait's 30% concentration and adds a saffron opening. FUGAZZI says the standard Extrait doubled the White Amber Crystals and Cashmeran of the Eau de Parfum and intensified the black pepper with pink peppercorn.

Where to Buy

  • US: Coming soon, according to FUGAZZI (no date or retailer announced yet)
  • UK: Coming soon, according to FUGAZZI (no date or retailer announced yet)
  • Europe: Skins (Netherlands, €205); FUGAZZI (€205)
  • Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 15 October 2026: in stock at Skins (€205) and in stock at fugazzifragrances.com (€205).

Skins currently lists Angel Dust Red Gold as a Skins exclusive, but FUGAZZI's own store now sells it too. Skins' own holiday launch this season is Skins The Holiday Box 2026.

What Makes the Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Different?

  • New opening: Safraleine and Safranal add saffron. FUGAZZI says the heart and base are unchanged.
  • Anniversary limited edition: it marks five years of Angel Dust, according to FUGAZZI and Skins.
  • Reclassified family: FUGAZZI lists it as Musky/Woody. The standard Extrait is listed as Woody/Spicy.

Formula and Packaging

  • Angel Dust Red Gold Edition Extrait de Parfum: FUGAZZI lists a 30% concentration, with Safraleine and Safranal added to the Angel Dust notes. FUGAZZI rates both scent intensity and sillage as "High."
  • Bottle and box: product images show a clear round glass bottle with a glossy red cap. "FUGAZZI / ANGEL DUST" is printed in red, with "RED GOLD EDITION" in small red letters near the base. The cream box reads "RED GOLD EDITION" in red.

Ellis Brooklyn ISLA TIME Mini Perfume Duo Gift Set: Price, Notes & Where to Buy

Ellis Brooklyn ISLA TIME Mini Perfume Duo Gift Set: mint box with lime ISLA SIRENA and aqua MIAMI NECTAR minis beside it

The Ellis Brooklyn ISLA TIME Mini Perfume Duo Gift Set pairs 7.5 mL Eau de Parfum minis of MIAMI NECTAR and ISLA SIRENA, the brand's two tropical scents. The limited-edition set costs $35 at Sephora US and CA$49 at Sephora Canada, where it was listed by 15 October 2026. It's the latest gift set from Ellis Brooklyn, which calls the two scents its bestselling fragrances.

Updated 15 October 2026: listed at Sephora US ($35) and Sephora Canada (CA$49); not listed on ellisbrooklyn.com. Because it's limited edition, stock can change quickly.

When Did the Ellis Brooklyn ISLA TIME Mini Perfume Duo Launch?

Ellis Brooklyn hasn't announced an official release date. The set was listed at Sephora US, as an app exclusive sold online only, and at Sephora Canada, also as an app exclusive, by 15 October 2026. As of that date, the set isn't listed on the brand's own site, ellisbrooklyn.com.

Price

The ISLA TIME duo costs $35 at Sephora US, which lists a $50 value for the set. Ellis Brooklyn doesn't sell the 7.5 mL minis on their own, so there's no per-item breakdown. In Canada, the set costs CA$49 at Sephora Canada.

For context, Ellis Brooklyn sells each scent as a 50 mL Eau de Parfum for $115 and as a 10 mL travel spray for $33. Those are larger sizes and are not included in this set.

It is not to be confused with Ellis Brooklyn's ISLA SIRENA Eau de Parfum Fragrance Duo, a 50 mL bottle plus a 10 mL travel spray at $126, listed on Ellis Brooklyn's site.

What's Inside

Sephora lists these products:

  • MIAMI NECTAR Eau de Parfum, 7.5 mL spray
  • ISLA SIRENA Eau de Parfum, 7.5 mL spray
  • Total: 2 x 7.5 mL = 15 mL

Ellis Brooklyn ISLA TIME Fragrance Notes

Ellis Brooklyn publishes the following pyramids on its product pages.

MIAMI NECTAR (more in our Ellis Brooklyn MIAMI NECTAR Eau de Parfum post):

  • Top: Pink Pineapple, Palm Leaves, Coconut Water

ISLA SIRENA:

  • Base: Vetiver, Brown Sugar, Teak Wood

What Does Ellis Brooklyn ISLA TIME Smell Like?

MIAMI NECTAR opens on pineapple and coconut water, moves to white florals such as jasmine and plumeria, and settles on amber woods, salted woods and vanilla. Ellis Brooklyn calls it "a lush and extravagant tropical gourmand fragrance."

ISLA SIRENA opens on banana, papaya, sea salt and lime, then coconut water and vanilla orchid, and finishes on vetiver, brown sugar and teak. The brand describes it as "breathtaking, transportive and joyful." Ellis Brooklyn's product page links the scent to a solo birthday trip to St. Barths.

Where to Buy

  • US: Sephora ($35)
  • UK: Not yet confirmed
  • Canada: Sephora Canada (CA$49)
  • Europe: Not yet confirmed
  • Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 15 October 2026: listed at Sephora US (Limited Edition, App Exclusive, Online Only) and Sephora Canada (Limited Edition, App Exclusive). Not listed on ellisbrooklyn.com, and not found at Space NK or Cult Beauty UK.

Sephora currently lists the set as an app exclusive. For a similar pair of gourmand minis, see the Le Monde Gourmand Le Petit Duo Set, or browse all fragrance releases.

What Makes the ISLA TIME Mini Perfume Duo Different?

  • It is a 7.5 mL format, smaller than the brand's 10 mL travel sprays, and Ellis Brooklyn doesn't sell this size individually.
  • Both scents list coconut water and vanilla in their notes, which links the two for layering.
  • Sephora lists it as Limited Edition and app exclusive in both the US and Canada, and it isn't sold on the brand's own site.

Formula and Packaging

  • MIAMI NECTAR: According to Ellis Brooklyn, it holds an EcoScent Compass AAA rating and is paraben-free, phthalate-free, cruelty-free and vegan. It comes as a 7.5 mL spray.

Montale Omahata Love Eau de Parfum 100 ml glass bottle with magenta and gold label, gold cap and hanging MT charm

Montale Omahata Love Eau de Parfum is a unisex floral-fruity leather fragrance with raspberry, lychee, rose and oud, in Montale's first glass bottle. The 100 ml eau de parfum costs €170 at Breuninger in Germany, where it was on sale by 15 October 2026. It is the first chapter of OMAHATA, a new collection that Montale says "makes emotions tangible through selected fragrance molecules."

Updated 15 October 2026: in stock at Breuninger Germany (€170, 100 ml); not yet listed on Montale's own site.

Montale Omahata Love Fragrance Notes

The official pyramid, as listed by Breuninger:

  • Top: raspberry, lychee, blackcurrant
  • Heart: rose, suede, cashmeran
  • Base: ambrocenide, muscenone, leather oud

What Does Montale Omahata Love Smell Like?

Going by the official notes, it opens on raspberry, lychee and blackcurrant. The heart pairs rose with suede and the woody-musky molecule cashmeran. The base is leather oud with ambrocenide and muscenone, two synthetic amber and musk molecules.

Montale calls it a floral-fruity leather composition inspired by "the chemistry of love": attraction, closeness and physical warmth. According to the brand's description on Breuninger, rose, lychee, juicy raspberry and soft suede blend into the leather accord, while muscenone, cashmeran and ambrocenide give "warm, skin-close sensuality and depth."

According to Olfastory, Montale says the name OMAHATA joins OM, the syllable of vibration, with ANAHATA, the Sanskrit name for the heart chakra.

What Makes the Montale Omahata Love Different?

  • First glass bottle: Montale's signature has been its aluminium bottle since the house was founded in 2003. Per Olfastory, glass is reserved for the OMAHATA collection and aluminium is not being dropped.
  • A new collection about emotions: Omahata Love opens OMAHATA, which Montale says is built around selected fragrance molecules.
  • Molecule-led notes: cashmeran, ambrocenide and muscenone are named in the official pyramid alongside raspberry, rose and leather oud.

For an earlier release from the house, see our post on Montale Bubble Forever. Omahata Love joins two other unisex niche launches this October: Nishane Hold Me Closer and Heretic Parfum Thornapple.

Formula and Packaging

  • Omahata Love Eau de Parfum (100 ml): According to Montale, muscenone, cashmeran and ambrocenide anchor the composition. It comes in a clear glass bottle with a magenta label, a gold mandala-style emblem and the MT monogram. The bottle has a gold cap and a gold star-shaped charm hanging from the collar.

Anti Plastic Love Eau de Parfum: Price, Notes & Where to Buy (US Exclusive)

ānti Plastic Love Eau de Parfum 100 ml bottle, pink ombré glass with a brushed pink cap and white label, on a white background

ānti (Anti Parfum) Plastic Love Eau de Parfum is a 1980s-themed perfume by Suzy Le Helley with key notes of strawberry, lemon, bubblegum and vanilla. It costs $245 for 100 ml and is currently sold through ānti's US store, us.anti-parfum.com. The product page has been listed there since 8 September 2026, and ScentAdvice reported the perfume as out now on 13 October 2026.

Updated 14 October 2026: available to order at us.anti-parfum.com; not listed on ānti's main store, anti-parfum.com.

What Makes ānti Plastic Love Different?

  • US-exclusive release: ScentAdvice reported that ānti "launched PLASTIC LOVE exclusively to the US." The perfume is currently listed on the brand's US store but not on its main international site.
  • 1980s bubblegum theme by Suzy Le Helley: ānti presents the perfume as "1984, reinterpreted by Suzy le Helley," and the box itself prints "1984."
  • Fruity-gourmand notes: ānti's four key notes pair fruit and fizz (strawberry, lemon) with confectionery (bubblegum, vanilla). The sweet, dessert-leaning direction is shared by recent launches such as Le Monde Gourmand Cristal Poire Perfume and PHLUR Heavy Cream Eau de Parfum.

When Did the ānti Plastic Love Launch?

ānti hasn't announced an official release date for Plastic Love. As observed, the product page at us.anti-parfum.com has been listed since 8 September 2026 (store listing date). ScentAdvice then announced the perfume as "out now" on 13 October 2026. As of 14 October 2026, it is available to order on the US store only.

ānti Plastic Love Fragrance Notes

ānti lists four key notes: strawberry, lemon, bubblegum and vanilla. The brand describes the scent as "a neon night in furs — strawberry lips and lemon fizz, bubblegum floating over synthetic musk and warm vanilla." ānti hasn't published a top, heart and base pyramid on its own product page.

ScentAdvice has published a fuller pyramid. It is ScentAdvice's arrangement, not an official ānti pyramid:

  • Top: lemon, tangerine, orange, strawberry
  • Heart: bubblegum, pineapple, coconut
  • Base: vanilla, sugar, rum, musk

ScentAdvice also quotes Symrise Fine Fragrances, which describes Plastic Love as "a sweet flashback to the 80s." In Symrise's description, tangerine, orange and lemon open the scent and melt into pineapple and creamy coconut, with rum and sugar in the drydown.

Bottle and Packaging

ānti's official photos show:

  • Bottle: pink ombré glass that fades to clear at the base, with a brushed pink metal cap.
  • Label: a vertical white label printed with "ānti" and "plastic love."
  • Box: cream, with dark wood-effect side panels and a holographic logo. It reads "plastic love eau de parfum," "100 ml / 3.4 fl oz" and "1984."

Where to Buy

  • US: ānti US store ($245, 100 ml)
  • UK: Not yet confirmed (not listed on ānti's main store)
  • International: Not yet confirmed

Checked 14 October 2026: available to order at us.anti-parfum.com; not listed on anti-parfum.com.

By Rosie Jane Mini Deluxe Duo Set with Rosie and Dulce 7ml bottles beside cream box on linen with tinsel, grapes and wine

By Rosie Jane's Holiday 2026 perfume gift sets pair Rosie, Dulce and other scents with body milk, body wash, perfume oil and candles. The gift sets range from $20 to $174 (US) at byrosiejane.com, where the lineup went on sale by 12 October 2026. New this season are the Mini Deluxe Duo Set and the Ultimate Routine. The Home + Away Holiday Boxes, The M.I.L.F Set and the Last All Day Set are returning.

Updated 14 October 2026: in stock at byrosiejane.com except the Feel Good Mini Set (sold out). Because several sets are limited edition, stock can change quickly.

When Did the By Rosie Jane Holiday 2026 Sets Launch?

By Rosie Jane hasn't announced an official release date. The holiday lineup was published on byrosiejane.com on 12 October 2026, and the Ultimate Routine followed on 13 October 2026. An Instagram post listing the holiday sets described them as "available now."

Byrosiejane.com shows several sets reduced from a higher price:

  • Mini Deluxe Duo Set from $50
  • Ultimate Routine from $163
  • Everything Bundle from $216
  • Home + Away Holiday Boxes from $131
  • The M.I.L.F Set from $128
  • Last All Day Set from $166

Also new for October are the Jumbo Body Milk in Rosie and Dulce ($42 each), the Solid Perfume Charm in Missy, Lake, Leila Lou, Remi and Dylan ($42), the Leila Lou and Dylan candles ($45) and a Limited Holiday Edition Mini Tote ($29).

What's Inside

  • Mini Deluxe Duo Set: 7ml Rosie and 7ml Dulce.
  • Ultimate Routine: 4 items, made up of a 50ml perfume, an 8oz WAKE body wash, a 5oz body milk and a 30-hour candle ("candle-ita").
  • Everything Bundle: 5 items, made up of a 50ml perfume, an 8oz matching body wash, a 5oz matching body milk, a 7ml perfume oil and a 30-hour candle.

The Ultimate Routine always pairs your chosen perfume with the WAKE body wash. The Everything Bundle matches every item to one scent and adds a perfume oil.

Byredo Les Miniatures Holiday 2026: Perfume Set & Candle Set, Price & Where to Buy

Byredo Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set: five mini bottles with black domed caps, Bal d'Afrique to Rose of No Man's Land

Byredo's Holiday 2026 Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set holds five 8ml perfumes, and a matching Les Miniatures Candle Set holds five 30g candles. The perfume set costs $210 on Byredo's US site and $220 at Sephora US. The candle set is $135 at Sephora US. The perfume set was on sale at Byredo US by 14 October 2026, and Sephora US and Sephora Canada list both limited-edition sets.

Byredo's other launch this season is the Byredo x Iittala LJUS Collection, five mouth-blown glass pieces for Byredo candles, incense and reed diffusers, on sale from 16 October 2026.

Byredo's holiday makeup this season is the Byredo Borealis Holiday 2026 Collection, an 18-shade eyeshadow palette and the Liquid Lipstick Vinyl in Aurora.

The two sets arrive alongside the brand's other seasonal launch, the Byredo Advent Calendar 2026 (Le Calendrier de l'Avent).

Updated 14 October 2026: The perfume set is in stock at Byredo US. Both sets are listed at Sephora US and Sephora Canada. Because they're limited edition, stock can change quickly.

Byredo hasn't published a fragrance-note breakdown for either set's listing. Byredo describes the perfume set this way: "each miniature bottle captures the essence of Byredo's most beloved icons."

Not to Be Confused With

  • Byredo's Holiday 2025 Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set. Sephora Canada still lists it at CA$290, under the name "Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set 2". It contained the same five scents in 8ml bottles but came in a plain white box.
  • Byredo La Sélection Nomade Eau de Parfum Set. Sephora US lists this separate set this season. It is a different set from Les Miniatures.

Both editions contain the same five scents in the same 8ml size. The 2026 edition changes the packaging.

Where to Buy

  • US: Byredo (Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set, $210). Sephora (Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set, $220). Sephora (Les Miniatures Candle Set, $135, currently listed as online only).
  • UK: Not yet confirmed. Neither set was listed at Byredo UK, Harrods, Selfridges or Liberty.
  • International:

- Canada: Sephora Canada (Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set, CA$290). Sephora Canada (Les Miniatures Candle Set, CA$180). Neither set is on Byredo's Canadian site.

Checked 14 October 2026: The perfume set is in stock at Byredo US. Both sets are listed at Sephora US and Sephora Canada. Neither set is listed at Byredo UK, Harrods, Selfridges, Liberty, Byredo EU or Byredo Canada.

What Makes the Byredo Les Miniatures Sets Different?

  • A matching candle set. Alongside the perfume miniatures, Byredo has a separate five-piece Les Miniatures Candle Set this season, from Winter Cabin to Cotton Poplin.
  • New packaging. The 2026 perfume set has the same five scents as Holiday 2025, but in limited-edition tartan-inspired packaging instead of a plain white box.
  • Different US prices. Byredo's own US site lists the perfume set at $210, while Sephora US lists it at $220.

Formula and Packaging

  • Les Miniatures Eau de Parfum Set: five of Byredo's best-known Eau de Parfum scents in 8ml bottles. Byredo says the seasonal gifting packaging draws on "Scotland's ancient traditions." Byredo's official images show a pale pink box with a coral knit-like geometric pattern and red, orange and green stripes at the top and bottom. The box is printed "BYREDO LES MINIATURES EAU DE PARFUM 5 x 8 ml".
  • Les Miniatures Candle Set: Sephora's listing image shows five small black glass candle vessels with white labels.
