4160 Tuesdays Butterlily Damselfly is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023, created by Sarah McCartney. Butterlily Damselfly opens with Water Lily, Freshwater Accord, and Grass, settles into a heart of Oak and Hay, and dries down to a base of Skin Musk and Beeswax. 4160 Tuesdays's Butterlily Damselfly carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This is a divisive one. Many find it captures an idealised summer meadow - all sweet, warm hay and green freshness. Others pick up an unexpected 'aftershave' note or even raw, earthy tones that some love and others, perhaps, not so much.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick. The dewy cut-grass and damp-green hay read best in spring, when new growth and morning dew are everywhere, carrying through into mellow summer wear.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its intimate sillage and average longevity make it an easy casual and office wear that will not overpower a room. The green, hay-forward, lightly animalic skin-musk profile leans away from formal evenings but is perfect for outdoor and relaxed daytime settings.

About

Imagine a hazy summer's day by a pond, the air thick with the scent of damp, green hay and freshly cut grass. A gentle, sweet warmth emanates from a beeswax accord, mingling with a subtle, clean skin musk. Underlying notes of oak lend a fresh, vibrant woodiness, creating an atmospheric and serene olfactive landscape.
