Crisp Citrus Aromatic Adventure: Histoires de Parfums 1828 Eau de Parfum
Immerse yourself in the invigorating, exploratory spirit of sharp citrus zest mingled with cool eucalyptus and warm spices over a resinous woody trail with Histoires de Parfums 1828 Eau de Parfum, launched in 2001 as part of the literary-inspired collection (masculine with unisex leanings, citrus aromatic, timeless appeal)—expertly crafted to honor Jules Verne, the father of science fiction, evoking a treasure chest of exotic woods and spices aboard a vessel charting unknown seas. Widely regarded as a refined, luxurious citrus aromatic with prominent grapefruit tang, eucalyptus menthol freshness, and nutmeg-pepper spice, it's often hailed as a sophisticated, high-quality classic—balancing bright, zesty uplift with dry, woody grounding, addictive versatility, and solid performance in a clean, adventurous fougère style.
This captivating elixir bursts open with a vivid, tart surge of grapefruit, tangerine, citruses, and eucalyptus for juicy, cooling freshness that's luminous and bracing, then evolves into a heart of nutmeg and pepper for warm, spicy kick that's aromatic and intriguing, finally drying down to a base of pine cone, cedar, incense, and vetiver for resinous, woody dryness with luxurious subtlety and lingering resonance. It’s citrus yet spicy, fresh yet woody, bright yet grounded—like explosive grapefruit laced with eucalyptus coolness over nutmeg-pepper heat, anchored in pine-cedar incense that lingers as a confident, exploratory aura of timeless discovery.
It explodes with grapefruit-eucalyptus—tart, cooling, and strikingly vibrant with citrus lift. The heart unveils nutmeg and pepper, creating a refined, spicy-aromatic core that’s balanced, warm, and captivating. It dries down to a luxurious, lingering pine-woody embrace—resinous, earthy, and subtly grounding—forming an enduring, intriguing trail that’s masculine, adventurous, and endlessly wearable.

Frequently celebrated as a gem in the Histoires de Parfums library—grapefruit-citrus dominant, eucalyptus-cooling, nutmeg-spicy iconic, with a strikingly fresh yet sophisticated vibe—1828 is described as uniting a bright citrus opening, intriguing spice heart, and dry woody-incense base (often praised as a "clean adventure glow," opulent yet approachable, with zesty lift and resinous depth). It’s a versatile all-season star (ideal for spring/summer daytime energy or year-round professional wear, perfect from office refinement to casual outings) that consistently draws compliments for its distinctive projection, elegant sillage, and irresistible charismatic aura.
Performance excels as an Eau de Parfum: 6-9+ hours longevity (evolves beautifully from citrus burst to woody-incense finish), moderate to good projection (generous yet controlled trail), and strong staying power for its category—transitioning seamlessly into a lingering resinous embrace. Fragrance lovers rave about its premium-quality composition, masterful citrus-woody balance, and effortless luxury, though a few note its classic aromatic-woods feel reminiscent of vintage icons—perfect for anyone seeking elevated citrus scents with spicy freshness and woody contrast.
