By Kilian Cocktail Collection ~ new fragrances

Posted by Robin on 8 August 2026 5 Comments

Later this month, French niche line By Kilian will launch the Cocktail Collection, with three fragrances: Midnight Espresso, Piña Paraíso and Sparkling Royal.

Midnight Espresso ~ "Like an after-dinner drink, this warm and sweet fragrance is a rich and addictive gourmand. Coffee and rum open with intense depth, melting into a warm accord of chocolate and hazelnut. Bourbon vanilla and benzoin Siam leave a smooth, velvety trail. Perfect for date nights, evenings out, and unforgettable after-hours moments. This long-lasting fragrance leaves a warm, addictive impression that lingers for 5+ hours."

Piña Paraíso ~ "Addictive tropical notes for this warm and floral scent inspired by a sun-drenched Piña Colada. Pineapple and rum reveal a luminous freshness, blossoming into a creamy heart of coconut and frangipani. Bourbon vanilla and tonka bean leave a warm, addictive trail on the skin. Perfect for beach days, tropical vacations, and sun-soaked adventures, this long-lasting fragrance leaves a radiant trail that carries the feeling of paradise for 5+ hours."

Sparkling Royal ~ "A fresh fruity floral scent, inspired by a sparkling Kir Royal cocktail. Bright and effortlessly refined, this perfume opens with an uplift of mint and lemon, evoking the first bubbles of a newly served cocktail. Slowly, a passionate heart of rose and blackcurrant unfolds. Tonka Bean and soft musk extend a sensual trail. Perfect for brunches, daytime gatherings, and evening celebrations alike, this long-lasting fragrance leaves a luminous floral trail that lasts for 5+ hours."

By Kilian Midnight Espresso, Piña Paraíso and Sparkling Royal will be available at Sephora, in 10 ($37) and 75 ($150) ml Eau de Parfum.

      They’re not bad at all…looks like they’re positioning this in between the regular line and that youth-oriented set they did a bit back.

    If I have to pick one, it will be the Midnight Espresso. Prices seem reasonable and, of course, under $100 is perfumath free!

    These sound like something Marc Jacobs would do.
