Evidence timeline

Sourced & time-stamped
A week after launch the brand still cannot sell it: the product page offers only a "notify me" form, and the newly listed 200 ml refill is out of stock too. None of the three tracked boutiques that carry Dries Van Noten lists it either — released on paper, unbuyable in practice.

Listed as 'New' on driesvannoten.com (100 ml EdP, €285); currently sold out online.

Fragrantica's launch report (16 Jul 2026) states the fragrance was already available in the brand's boutiques and on its website at €285 / 100 ml. The comment thread on the same page documents actual purchases — the site sold out within hours of going live, and a reader bought a bottle from the Los Angeles boutique on 18 July. On 22 July the brand told another reader by email that it had no restock date and pointed them at the stock-notification form. This confirms a sell-out rather than a pre-launch listing: the "New" badge and empty stock on driesvannoten.com alone would not have told the two apart.
