The Scent

Cinnamon and pepper open hot and dry, then tobacco leaf, incense, cistus, and osmanthus build a spiced, slightly smoky heart. The base is where it turns gourmand: vanilla, musks, and cedarwood wrap the tobacco and spice in a sweet, warm finish. Parfums de Marly describes Herod in its own words as prestigious, gourmand and opulent, and the fragrance plays that straight, spicy up top, sweet and woody underneath.

Worth Knowing

Herod sits alongside Layton and Pegasus in Parfums de Marly's men's lineup, built around the same maximalist, richly blended house style the brand is known for. It was composed by perfumer Olivier Pescheux.

Where It Came From

Herod launched in 2012, early in Parfums de Marly's history as a house.

About Parfums de Marly

Parfums de Marly launched in Paris in 2009, named for the royal stables at the Château de Marly outside Versailles. Its horse-and-carriage branding and bottle design nod to 18th-century French aristocracy. The house sits between designer and niche, going for maximalist, richly blended fragrances at prices below most fully niche houses.
