by Maison Trudon
Revolution by Maison Trudon is a deeply smoky, resinous scent that evokes the atmosphere of a violent revolution—charred wood, campfire haze, and lingering smoke balanced with green, herbal, and woody notes. It opens with a bold, leathery smokiness reminiscent of cured ham, incense, and juniper, which softens gradually into a more ethereal, nuanced blend of cedar, patchouli, and balsamic resins. The scent has a luminous, almost transparent quality that stays close to the skin, making it a subtle yet deliberate statement. Despite its intensity, it manages to avoid being oppressive or acrid, thanks to the smooth integration of aromatic, woody, and balsamic accords. Longevity is moderate, with most wearers noting it lasts around 9 to 12 hours, though wearers report it fades to a whisper after a few hours. It suits night wear and colder seasons, particularly autumn and winter, and is almost universally seen as unisex, though some find it better suited for a masculine or rugged aesthetic. The fragrance is not sweet or fruity—it's focused on smoky depth, medicinal woods, and incense. It pairs well with leather coats and cold-weather comfort, offering a contemplative, dramatic ambiance rather than a flashy one.
