Discover Pure Emotional Warmth: Costume National Soul Sample

Unleash raw sensuality with Costume National Soul, a captivating oriental spicy fragrance launched in 2015 by the Italian fashion house. Masterfully crafted by legendary perfumer Dominique Ropion, it embodies the very essence of CoSTUME NATIONAL—pure emotion, absolute purity, and timeless elegance—centered around iconic ambergris fused with precious oud, leather, and warm vanilla for a deep, charismatic trail. The scent opens with bold cardamom, zesty bergamot, and vibrant pink pepper for a spicy-citrus spark, evolves into a smoky heart of agarwood (oud), smooth leather, and aromatic geranium adding exotic resinous depth, then settles into a luxurious base of ambergris, sweet vanilla, and earthy patchouli for addictive, velvety warmth—perfect for the confident explorer seeking a mature, unisex blend of spice, smoke, and sophistication.

At Perfuum, we offer authentic Costume National Soul fragrance decants and samples, letting you savor this hidden gem without the full bottle commitment. With free US shipping on orders over $60, our Soul perfume samples bring underrated designer artistry at an accessible price.

Soul captures the brand's soul through rare, high-quality ingredients, delivering a warm, sensual aura that's sweeter and smoother than classic ouds, with excellent performance: strong longevity (often 8-12+ hours), solid projection, and intimate-to-moderate sillage that evolves from spicy vibrancy to a cozy, ambery-vanilla drydown. Fragrance communities hail it as a "hidden gem"—often compared to a refined, more ambery take on YSL M7 (less medicinal, sweeter, and more wearable), with nods to smoky orientals like Tom Ford Oud Wood but at a fraction of the price and intensity.

Fragrance Notes: A Spicy Amber Masterpiece Costume National Soul unfolds with bold spice before plunging into smoky, resinous depths. Here's the breakdown:

• Top Notes: Cardamom, Pink Pepper, and Bergamot. It opens with warm, spicy-citrus energy—like an invigorating oriental dawn.
• Heart Notes: Agarwood (Oud), Leather, and Geranium. These deliver smoky, exotic resin with smooth leather and aromatic nuance.
• Base Notes: Ambergris, Vanilla, and Patchouli. It dries down rich, sweet, and velvety, with ambergris and vanilla lingering powerfully.

This distinctive composition earns praise for its "sweet-spicy oud-amber" sophistication—resinous and cozy with a modern edge, often called a superior, more accessible alternative to heavier oud classics.
