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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Hidden Shores opens with a bracing crush of blackcurrant and juniper, sharpening into the crisp, mentholated cut of pine. This vibrant, green freshness soon deepens, as violet leaf and immortelle fold into the composition, creating a verdant, almost fern-like heart. The drydown settles into the rich, earthy embrace of vetiver, fir resin, and cedar, evoking a dense, ancient forest at the edge of a wild, untamed sea.
