Art Brut Turbulent Romantic Parfum
Description
Turbulent Romantic is a dark, sweet parfum of chocolate, salted caramel, leather and moss. Created by perfumer Margaux Le Paih Guérin for the Berlin-rooted house Art Brut and released in 2026. Green tea, magnolia and papyrus open cool and almost weightless, then dark chocolate and salted caramel thicken the heart with a touch of resin. Patchouli, moss, leather and gaiac wood take over in the dry-down, darker and slightly animalic.
