Elizabeth Arden's Cabriole arrived in 1977 as a classic entry in the chypre category, representing the house's expertise in traditional feminine fragrance design from that era.

The fragrance opens with a bright, slightly tart top accord combining pineapple, peach, and red apple with crisp aldehydes and bergamot, creating an immediate fruity-floral impression. The heart settles into a traditional floral arrangement of rose, carnation, jasmine, and violet, grounded by powdery elements that soften the florals. The base provides classic chypre structure through oak moss, sandalwood, and Virginia cedar, finished with amber and beeswax for warmth and subtle sweetness. The overall effect is a well-balanced, somewhat green-tinged chypre with fruity brightness tempering the florals and earthy base notes.

Cabriole works best as a daytime or office fragrance, particularly suited to those who appreciate vintage chypres without wanting anything too heavy or modern. The aldehydic opening and fruit notes make it feel crisp and approachable rather than serious. This is a fragrance for the classic taste -- it aligns with The Homesteader, The Sensualist, and The Tactician profiles.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Pineapple
Pineapple
Vivid, tropical, and intensely sweet with a slightly fermented, almost winey quality, pineapple is one of the most assertive tropical fruit notes. It adds an immediate, unambiguous tropical sweetness that can dominate if used too heavily. In moderate amounts it adds a lively, summery energy to fruity and aquatic compositions.
Aldehydes
Aldehydes
The chemical family that created modern perfumery, aldehydes were first used prominently in Chanel N°5 (1921), adding a soapy, abstract, almost metallic sparkle that lifted the fragrance above anything previously possible. They don't smell like anything in nature; their effect is more textural than aromatic. Aldehydic fragrances feel luminous, sophisticated, and distinctly 20th century.
Peach
Peach
Ripe, juicy, and velvety, peach has a warm, slightly creamy sweetness that feels lush rather than childish in the right context. It adds a fruity sensuality to floral and oriental fragrances, and its slightly fuzzy quality can even play into tactile, skin-like accords. A note that feels like high summer.
Red Apple
Red Apple
Bergamot
Bergamot
A sun-ripened Italian citrus with a brightness that goes beyond lemon, simultaneously tart, floral, and slightly spicy. It's the defining note of Earl Grey tea and the backbone of countless fresh colognes. Perfumers love it as an opener because it lifts the entire composition without overpowering what follows.
Anise
Anise
Sweet, warm, and intensely licorice-like, anise seed has a Mediterranean, medicinal sweetness that is simultaneously familiar and distinctive. In perfumery anise adds a warm, aromatic depth that bridges spice and gourmand families. Used in oriental compositions and masculine fragrances to add a slightly unusual, warming sweetness.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Rose
Rose
The queen of floral notes and the most-used ingredient in fine perfumery. Real rose is simultaneously velvety, honeyed, and slightly spicy, nothing like the synthetic candy version. Depending on the variety used, it can anchor a composition or drift through it like a ghost, adding warmth without dominating.
Carnation
Carnation
Spicy, clove-like, and slightly powdery, carnation is one of perfumery's oldest floral notes, with a warm, almost peppery character that distinguishes it from softer flowers. It has a vintage, slightly old-fashioned quality that is coming back into fashion. Think pressed flowers in an old book, warm and complex.
Jasmine
Jasmine
Intoxicating, heady, and slightly animalic, jasmine is one of the few flowers that smells as rich in a bottle as it does climbing a garden wall at dusk. It has an almost fleshy, indolic quality that stops it reading as purely 'clean.' Jasmine is a workhorse in both feminine and masculine perfumery, adding depth and soul.
Violet
Violet
Sweet, powdery, and faintly green, violet sits between floral and earthy in a way that feels distinctly old-world glamorous. The leaf and the flower smell quite different: the flower is sugary and delicate, while violet leaf is fresh and slightly vegetal. Together they create a note that feels both nostalgic and current.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Beeswax
Beeswax
Warm, slightly honeyed, and faintly waxy, beeswax captures the hive's scent rather than pure honey: less sweet, more complex, with a natural, slightly animalic quality. It adds a living warmth to floral and oriental compositions, suggesting proximity to nature. Closely related to honey in perfumery but quieter and more textural.
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
oak moss
oak moss
Virginia Cedar
Virginia Cedar
Warm, slightly sweet, and clean, Virginia cedarwood is the most commonly used cedar in mainstream perfumery. It has a familiar, pencil-cedar smell with a soft warmth that makes it universally approachable. Less assertive than Atlas cedar, it acts as a quiet, reliable base note in hundreds of commercial fragrances.
Amber
Amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
