More Sex.

Anne Flipo built More Sex around an idea Charlotte Tilbury has been quietly perfecting since the Collection of Emotions: that fragrance isn't decoration, it's declaration. The 2024 launch marks another chapter in this emotional fragrance philosophy, where each scent targets a specific psychological response rather than following tradition. More Sex asks a direct question: what does confidence smell like when it's not trying anymore?

The key materials here are doing something unusual. Aldron, a synthetic musk with an animalic, woody, amber profile, doesn't smell like anything found in nature. It smells like skin that just came in from the cold. Combined with ambroxan's smoked mineral depth, the heart of this fragrance skips the civet and goes straight to the impression of it: warmth without animality. Juniper berry, meanwhile, isn't the usual gin-note pine, it's a berry, almost fruity, that adds sweetness beneath the black pepper's crackle. The leather isn't tanned hide; it's the smell of leather gloves warming on skin.

More Sex announces itself in two sharp notes, black pepper and juniper berry, that hit like someone entering a room and immediately commanding attention. Thirty minutes in, that initial crackle softens as the leather accord surfaces, warm and slightly sweet, with the musks and ambroxan creating something between skin-close and atmosphere. The sandalwood doesn't rush. It arrives quiet, joins close, and stays. On fabric, this fragrance lingers past twelve hours. On skin, the projection fades to a whisper by hour six, but the drydown, the woody-musky base, just keeps holding. You catch it the next morning and it's still there, settled into something deeper than the opening ever promised.

More Sex landed in 2024 as part of Charlotte Tilbury's most deliberately provocative launch. The name alone generated discussion, wearers either embrace it as a confident statement or quietly rebottle it. Among fragrance communities, the consensus split: some find the name the only memorable thing; others find the leather-ambroxan combination genuinely addictive. It sits adjacent to私密沙龙作品 more than mass-market designers, a positioning the Collection of Emotions as a whole has been building toward since its first scent, without the prohibitively niche price tag.
