Pierre Guillaume Paris is a French indie fragrance house known for developing distinctive compositions that prioritize raw, interesting scent structures over mass-market appeal.

Fareb opens with a sharp blast of spice, led by cinnamon, cumin, ginger, and pepper, layered with prominent leather and herbal notes that immediately signal its unconventional DNA. The heart settles into hay, which adds a natural, slightly animalic quality that grounds the spice rather than softening it. The base deepens with amber and birch supporting a return of leather alongside thyme and juniper, creating a woody, herbal finish that stays grounded and contemplative. This is a fragrance built on contrasts, with its fresh-spicy top notes giving way to something earthier and more introspective.

Fareb works best for those who appreciate spiced fragrances with genuine complexity and don't shy away from leather and herbs. It's a cooler-weather option, suited to evening wear or anyone seeking something characterful and slightly austere. If you gravitate toward The Dark Poet, The Maverick, and The Mystic, this will likely appeal to you.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
cinnamon
cinnamon
Sweet, warm, and instantly comforting, cinnamon bark has a familiar warmth that slides easily into oriental and gourmand fragrances. Used sparingly it adds a pleasant warmth; used heavily it can dominate. It has a slightly sharp, peppery facet alongside its sweetness that keeps it from being purely foodie.
cumin
cumin
Warm, earthy, and slightly animalic, cumin is one of perfumery's most controversial spice notes because it has a distinctly body-heat quality. In small amounts it adds authentic warmth and depth; in larger doses it becomes sweaty and challenging. Used masterfully in masculine orientals and in Middle Eastern-inspired fragrances.
ginger
ginger
Warm, zesty, and slightly medicinal with a bite that sits between spice and citrus. Ginger root adds a lively, invigorating quality to fragrances, it energises rather than soothes. Depending on how it's used, it can read as fresh and zingy or warm and earthy, making it unusually versatile across fragrance families.
leather
leather
One of perfumery's most complex accords, smoky, animalic, and slightly woody, evoking tanned hide, polished saddles, or fine gloves depending on the recipe. Leather adds sophistication and edge simultaneously, and is deeply associated with masculinity in Western perfumery (though the best leather fragrances transcend gender entirely).
pepper
pepper
The most essential spice note in perfumery, encompassing the dry, woody heat of black pepper and its many relatives. Pepper adds edge, lift, and a masculine vitality to fragrances without sweetness. It is the note that stops a composition from feeling comfortable and safe, adding a confident, assertive character.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
hay
hay
Warm, sweet, and slightly smoky, the scent of dried grass and summer fields. Hay in perfumery reads as coumarin-adjacent: warm, powdery, and nostalgic, with an honest, agricultural quality that grounds sweeter notes. It adds the smell of the countryside to orientals and woods, making them feel warmer and more organic.
Base · 3–12 hrs
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.
birch
birch
Tarry, smoky, and distinctly medicinal, birch tar (used in classic leather fragrances) has an almost petroleum-like quality that creates unmistakable leather accords. Birch leaf, by contrast, is clean and green. Birch tar is not for the timid: it's the note that makes old-school Russian Leather fragrances smell like what they are.
juniper
juniper
leather
leather
One of perfumery's most complex accords, smoky, animalic, and slightly woody, evoking tanned hide, polished saddles, or fine gloves depending on the recipe. Leather adds sophistication and edge simultaneously, and is deeply associated with masculinity in Western perfumery (though the best leather fragrances transcend gender entirely).
thyme
thyme
Herbal, slightly medicinal, and earthy with a warm, honey-like underpinning that sets it apart from greener herbs like basil. Thyme adds a French countryside quality, rugged but refined. It's used to add character and specificity to herbal-woody compositions that might otherwise feel generic.
