Fragrance information:

If you are looking for a fragrance that defies convention and declares your individuality, discover Illamasqua Freak—a unisex perfume launched in 2011.

This oriental floral elixir from the British brand Illamasqua is a true anthem to boldness and nonconformity. It seems made for those who are not afraid to be different.

History and creation

This provocative fragrance was created by the talented perfumer Azzi Glasser, known for her ability to combine seemingly incompatible elements.

Freak became part of Illamasqua's DNA—a brand inspired by Gothic aesthetics and German Expressionism.

It is no surprise that the composition turned out so mysterious and magnetic.

Character and scent profile

The fragrance belongs to the Oriental and Floral families, with an Eau de Parfum concentration. As a result, Freak has a noticeable, rich sillage that leaves a lasting trail.

It is a fragrance for evening outings and special occasions, when you want to attract attention and highlight your uniqueness.

The pyramid unfolds gradually: at the opening, you will sense the slightly bitter greenery of wormwood paired with the poisonous beauty of belladonna.

At its heart, a dangerous romance blooms: hemlock, cactus flower, and datura. The base is composed of resinous incense, myrrh, and noble oud.

This combination creates a mystical, slightly dark atmosphere.

Who Freak is for

This fragrance is for bold personalities who appreciate the exotic and are not afraid to be noticed. It is perfect for those seeking something unusual that can emphasize their individuality.

Its unisex positioning (unisex) makes it versatile, though it clearly appeals to lovers of Gothic aesthetics.

Perfume information

Description of the composition

The composition of Illamasqua Freak opens with the bittersweet greenery of wormwood (artemisia) and the dangerous sweetness of belladonna.

At the heart of the fragrance, intoxicating accents of hemlock, exotic cactus flower, and mind-altering datura intertwine.

The base lends warmth and depth through resinous frankincense, balsamic myrrh, and woody oud.

This pyramid evokes a mystical ritual, unfolding from herbal freshness into rich, almost ecclesiastical notes.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.
Persistence
High (5 to 12 hours)

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Complexity and depth
The complexity of a fragrance is the number and variety of notes that create a unique composition. A complex fragrance contains many different notes that reveal themselves on the skin. The depth of a fragrance is the richness and intensity of the fragrance. Fragrances with a deep composition include heavy and powerful notes that stay on the skin longer and affect others over long distances.
