Flawed Fern: 4160 Tuesdays' Unexpected Twist on the Fougère
Perfumer Sarah McCartney introduces Flawed Fern, a new aromatic fougère from 4160 Tuesdays that launched in 2026. Made for both men and women, it takes the classic fern accord and gives it a fresh, subtly spicy edge.
The name says it all: an imperfect fern, full of character. The blend features bergamot, lavender, coumarin, oakmoss, kumquat, fennel, basil, and fern.
London-based 4160 Tuesdays has built a name for playful, narrative-driven scents, and Flawed Fern is a perfect example. Sarah McCartney, the creative force behind the house, draws on the traditional aromatic fougère structure but bends it with unexpected ingredients.
The familiar pillars are there—lavender and oakmoss give that classic barbershop feel—while kumquat, fennel, and basil introduce a zesty, herbaceous, and slightly anise-like twist. It’s a clever contrast that keeps the fragrance from feeling retro.
The accords are aromatic, fresh, and spicy, with citrus, woody, and mossy undertones. A touch of coumarin adds a soft, vanillic warmth, balancing the green crispness of the fern accord.
Flawed Fern wears lightly but leaves an impression. It’s versatile enough for daily use, with a freshness that suits spring and summer. The gentle spice gives it just enough intrigue for evening wear.
This is a fragrance for anyone who appreciates the structure of a classic fougère but craves a modern, offbeat perspective. It’s a celebration of imperfection, bottled.
Fans of classic fougères looking for something unconventional, and anyone who loves green, fresh, softly spiced fragrances.
Flawed Fern is a delightful surprise from 4160 Tuesdays—proof that a fougère can be both familiar and wonderfully weird, all at once.
