VILHELM PARFUMERIE
CHICAGO HIGH

Chicago High opens with a vibrant burst of pineapple and bergamot, brightening the senses with a fizzy champagne twist. This initial sweetness quickly shifts into a heart that combines the rich warmth of honey with the earthy depth of tobacco, creating a contrast that feels both comforting and intriguing. As the fragrance settles, it envelops you in a base of leather, amber, and patchouli, lending a sophisticated and slightly animalic finish that lingers on the skin. This unisex scent is ideally suited for fall and winter, making it perfect for cozy evenings or sophisticated daytime outings. With moderate longevity and sillage, Chicago High strikes a balance between presence and subtlety, allowing it to transition seamlessly from day to night. It’s a versatile choice for those who appreciate a sweet yet grounded fragrance that stands out without being overpowering. If you're drawn to complex blends that offer a unique take on traditional notes, Chicago High is a worthy addition to your collection, often compared to the likes of Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille but with its own distinct flair.

verifiedBy Fragranova Editors

Chicago High opens on champagne and pineapple before easing into a tobacco and honey heart. Leather, amber, and patchouli carry the base, which is where the wear ultimately lives. Expect a reasonable, well-behaved wear, not a beast, not a whisper. Hits hardest across fall and winter at any hour. Most wearers settle on liking it (3.7/5) rather than loving it, a safe rotation addition.
