502 Limited Cocoa Edition
Extending a moment held in time. At dawn, hand in hand.
Images cross and softly intertwine.
Zesty tangerine, fresh eucalyptus, enveloped by cocoa. A loving memory.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a fragrance for close, unhurried company in the early hours, when the air is still cool and the mood is intimate rather than showy. It suits someone who wants sweetness with structure: a scent that reads as warm skin, soft woods and a faint cocoa glow rather than dessert.
How to wear
Best in mild to cool weather, where its citrus lift and dry woods can breathe without the cocoa becoming heavy. Apply lightly to the chest or neck for a close, sensual trail; with a few sprays it stays polished and intimate, projecting a soft woody-gourmand aura rather than a broad cloud.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like gourmand fragrances with restraint, especially those drawn to iris, cocoa, woods and a slightly aromatic freshness. It will appeal to people who prefer sensuality with dryness, sweetness balanced by structure, and a modern niche style that feels refined rather than sugary.

The nose
Clément Marx. Marx works in a modern French niche register, shaping compositions that feel polished, legible and textural rather than overbuilt. In 502, he reworks Bon Parfumeur’s cocoa-iris idea with extra freshness, letting mandarin and eucalyptus brighten the gourmand core while keeping the woods and papyrus dry and elegant.
Collaborators
Ludovic Bonneton, Bon Parfumeur’s founder, appears to have shaped the fragrance’s emotional brief and storytelling, framing it as a memory of dawn and a romantic moment in Cartagena. His role is less about formula and more about the concept: a perfume built from personal imagery, intimacy and the brand’s layered, contemporary French identity.
Bon Parfumeur’s story
Bon Parfumeur is a French niche house built around made-in-France craftsmanship, eco-conscious values and a workshop-like approach to perfumery. Its fragrances are numbered, unisex and designed to be expressive, layerable and rooted in clear olfactory ideas rather than heavy branding.
502 Limited Cocoa Edition’s concept
502 extends Bon Parfumeur’s Cartagena story into a fresher gourmand direction: a dawn-lit memory of two people, zesty citrus and cocoa, with the composition moving between romance and restraint. The fragrance is presented as a modern reinterpretation of the house’s iris-cocoa theme, with mandarin and eucalyptus lifting the darker, drier woody base.
Extra info
502 is part of Bon Parfumeur’s numbered fragrance system and its iris collection. The name “Limited Cocoa Edition” appears to be informal retail shorthand rather than the official product name, which on the brand site is 502 Iris Cartagena. The fragrance also exists in both extrait and eau de parfum interpretations.
