About Corpo Trente Cinq 3 Bérénice Watteau
Corpo Trente Cinq / Corpo 35 3 Bérénice Watteau is a unisex fragrance by the French brand Corpo Trente Cinq / Corpo 35, released in 2018.
This composition was created for those who appreciate expressive fragrances with a distinct character and do not divide perfumery into strictly feminine and masculine categories.
The name 3 Bérénice Watteau sets this release apart from the brand’s other fragrances, while the composition itself is built on the contrast between a fresh citrus opening, a spicy green heart and a warm woody-musky base.
As a result, the fragrance feels composed and rich, gradually moving from bright freshness to a soft, enveloping depth.
Character and development
The fragrance opens with a sparkling lemon accord. It quickly refreshes the scent and creates a clean, energetic impression that particularly highlights the versatility of the composition.
In the heart, the transparency of lemon gives way to a combination of geranium, lavender and rum.
The floral-green nuances of lavender and geranium acquire a darker, slightly sweet and warming background thanks to the rum note.
This transition is what makes the fragrance more intriguing than a simple citrus accord and gives it individuality.
The drydown unfolds with cedar, vanilla and musk.
The dry dryness of cedar supports the structure of the composition, vanilla softens it and adds a delicate gourmand roundness, while musk leaves a clean, dense and long-lasting sensation on the skin.
Sillage and wearability
The sillage of 3 Bérénice Watteau is considered very strong, so the fragrance is noticeable in the air and can linger in the memory for a long time.
It is best chosen when you want a distinctive presence rather than a barely perceptible veil of fragrance.
The composition is suitable for cool weather, evening outings and occasions when a rich fragrance with a woody-rum accent is appropriate.
It can also smell impressive in warm weather, but requires especially careful application.
Specific recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing are not available for this release, so it is best to start with a minimal amount and increase it gradually.
Concentration and place within the brand
The concentration of 3 Bérénice Watteau is not specified in the available information, nor are details about other concentrations of this fragrance.
The perfumer’s name has also not been disclosed, so it is more accurate to assess the composition by its olfactory profile: citrus, floral, green, woody, gourmand and musky.
The release reflects the French approach of Corpo Trente Cinq / Corpo 35 to creating unisex fragrances, in which fresh and warm nuances work together without being tied to gender stereotypes.
If you enjoy pronounced sillage, rum nuances and the combination of cedar and vanilla, this fragrance may be an interesting way to discover the brand.

For comparison, you might consider V Canto Mirabile, Bois 1920 Spigo 1920 and Alfred Dunhill D Dunhill.
