Angela Flanders Earl Grey is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1994. Earl Grey opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Cedar, Rosewood, Clove, and Palmarosa, and dries down to a base of Patchouli. Angela Flanders's Earl Grey carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly polarising juice, Earl Grey either delights with its earthy, spicy depth or disappoints with a dank, mouldy edge. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, so definitely sample first.

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:
Fall

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual

Its warm and spicy nature makes it a good fit for cosier, more intimate settings like a date, though its divisive character means it's less safe for formal or office wear. The earthiness might appeal for casual outings, but its lack of overt freshness rules out sporty activities.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove

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

Don't expect your standard cuppa. This opens with a bright, citrusy bergamot, but quickly delves into a rich, warm spicy heart of rosewood blended with robust notes hinting at clove and cinnamon. The dry down is all earthy patchouli, deep and lingering, though some find it a bit too unkempt.
