Segment:
Lux perfumes
Fragrance information:
When night falls over the city and shadows begin to play tricks on the mind, Broken Theories takes the stage—a fragrance born in a Detroit garage in 2015.
This unisex eau de parfum by perfumer John Pegg is more than just a composition; it is an exploration of fear and hope, expressed through oriental and spicy notes.
An Olfactory Journey into the Night
Broken Theories tells the story of darkness giving way to dawn. The fragrance opens with a cool citrus burst of blood orange, which quickly melts into a smoky, resinous heart.
Oud and incense create a mystical atmosphere, while spices and tobacco add warmth. In the base, sandalwood and vanilla envelop the senses in a comforting sweetness, like the first ray of sunlight chasing away fears.
Sillage and Character
This unisex fragrance has a noticeable trail—it does not ask to be quiet, but makes its presence known. Ideal for cool evenings and occasions when you want to leave a lasting impression.
Its multifaceted nature appeals both to lovers of classic oud and to those seeking unexpected combinations.
Influence and Legacy
Born from passion, Broken Theories is a vivid example of how niche perfumery can be both profound and approachable.
If you enjoy this bold style, consider Montale Dark Aoud, S.T.
Dupont Oud Oriental or Fleurage Perfume Atelier Spiced Vanilla—they share the same love of oriental drama.
