Potion

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Dsquared2 Potion

Potion was Dsquared2’s spicy, alchemical men’s fragrance before it was discontinued, and our version brings that seductive brew back as a long-lasting eau de parfum.

The Story Behind the Scent

Launched in 2011 and composed by Annick Menardo, Potion was Dsquared2’s spicy, alchemical men’s fragrance, inspired by old apothecary vials and the idea of a seductive brew. Dsquared2 has since discontinued it, so original bottles are now hard to find.

Our interpretation brings that alchemical scent back, rebuilt at 40 percent perfume oil so the minty herbal opening, the spicy rose heart and the warm woody base last far longer than the original.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

The original has been discontinued and is hard to find. We rebuild the same spicy alchemical oriental character as an eau de parfum and sell direct, so you can wear it again without paying resale prices.

Who It’s For

It suits anyone who loves a spicy alchemical oriental scent.

Notes

Top notes: Red Mint, Thyme

Heart notes: Cinnamon, Black Pepper

Base notes: Cashmere Wood, Amber

How it Smells

It opens cool and herbal, with red mint, angelica and thyme.

The heart is warm and spicy, with cinnamon, black pepper and a touch of rose.

The base is deep and cosy, with cashmere wood, patchouli, amber and musk giving a seductive finish.

Common Questions

How close is it to Dsquared2 Potion?

Very close. We rebuild the same spicy alchemical scent around mint, cinnamon, pepper and amber, bringing back the discontinued Dsquared2 favourite as a long-lasting eau de parfum.

Is the original still available?

The original has been discontinued and is now hard to find, or only sold at high prices by resellers. Our version brings the same style back so you can wear it again without hunting for a bottle.

Is this the same perfume as Dsquared2 Potion?

No. We do not use the same formula or ingredients. It is an independent interpretation made to evoke the same style, created because the original is no longer easy to buy.

How long does it last?

You can expect several hours on skin. Spraying onto clothing as well as skin helps it last even longer.

Who is it best for?

It is made for men who love a spicy, seductive oriental for evenings and cooler weather.

How should I apply it?

Spray on pulse points such as the wrists, neck and inner elbows. A light spritz on clothing makes it last through the day.
