About Villain
Villain by Chris Collins Is a Smoky Woody Oriental
Chris Collins introduces Villain, a new fragrance in the woody oriental family, made for men and women. It arrives in 2026 with a bold, unisex character that stands out from the crowd.
The composition is built around galbanum, myrrh, smoke, akigalawood, tobacco, and thyme. Together, these notes create a contrast of green freshness, resinous warmth, and smoky depth.
Villain opens with a striking blend of bitter green galbanum and aromatic thyme, quickly wrapped in a veil of smoke. The aromatic and green accords give the perfume an immediate, recognizable edge.
Myrrh and akigalawood form the balsamic, woody heart, while tobacco adds a dry, slightly sweet warmth. The result feels dark, spicy, and enveloping without becoming heavy.
In the base, an oud accord deepens the composition, adding a darker, almost shadowy dimension. Amber and balsamic nuances complete the development, creating a slow, sensual trail on the skin.
Despite its intensity, Villain remains balanced enough for different occasions. The house has not released a detailed fragrance pyramid, but the listed notes paint a clear picture: a modern, sophisticated oriental with a rebellious spirit.
Early reviews are encouraging, with an average rating of 4.43 out of 5 based on 23 ratings. Enthusiasts praise the longevity, sillage, and unconventional personality of this new release.
Villain is for anyone who enjoys unisex perfumes with strong presence, especially lovers of smoky woods, resins, and dry tobacco. It will also appeal to those seeking an intense, evolving scent far from conventional floral or citrus profiles.
With Villain, Chris Collins delivers a new-generation woody oriental: green, smoky, and warm, with enough personality to become a favorite among fans of characterful fragrances.
