Broken Theories
Broken Theories by Kerosene is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. The house lists its notes as blood orange, tobacco, spices, vanilla, sandalwood, oud and incense, without saying which you smell first. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Listed notes
- Blood Orange Orange with a red-fruit edge. Richer and slightly jammy.
- Tobacco Sweet, dried and honeyed. Nothing like a cigarette.
- Spices Warm spice with no single spice named.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
