Overall impression
ICON. Relentless No.03 is a unisex fragrance from 2024 by ICON., a Dutch perfume brand with a distinctive contemporary character.
This eau de parfum was created for those who appreciate striking compositions with a rich, dense presence and a confident character.
The fragrance belongs to the woody, fruity and balsamic families.
This combination brings together the richness of dark resins and woody nuances with a berry accent, so Relentless No.03 comes across as a deep and contrasting release without being tied specifically to either a feminine or masculine wardrobe.
Character and longevity
The main feature of ICON. Relentless No.03 is its very powerful sillage.
The fragrance makes a noticeable statement in the air and is best suited to those who enjoy an expressive perfume with high intensity rather than a quiet, almost intimate presence.
On the skin, the composition unfolds richly: balsamic and woody nuances form its substantial backbone, while a fruity touch adds contrast and liveliness.
As a result, the fragrance can be especially striking in cool weather, in the evening and in situations where a memorable perfume accent is appropriate.
The exact amount of ICON. Relentless No.03 to apply to skin and clothing is not specified in the available information.
Given its very powerful sillage, the fragrance is best tested gradually, assessing how it develops on your own skin and taking the occasion and the size of the space into account.
Olfactive pyramid and profile
The stated composition features benzoin, incense, oud and raspberry. The notes are arranged in a mixed pyramid, so separate top, middle and base accords are not specified in the description.
Benzoin and incense give the profile resinous depth, oud enhances its woody side, while raspberry adds a fruity nuance.
Together, they create a rich balance between dark texture and berry expressiveness — it is precisely this contrast that makes the fragrance intriguing to discuss and discover at an unhurried pace.
Who will enjoy this fragrance
Relentless No.03 is presented as unisex, so choosing it depends not on gender but on personal preferences for woody, balsamic and fruity compositions.
It will appeal to those looking for powerful sillage, a noticeable presence and a combination of resinous-woody depth with a raspberry accent.
Other concentrations of this fragrance are not listed in the database.
