Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

Citrus and green herbs over a light vetiver base, and at Eau de Toilette strength it is at its best in spring and summer.

Casual

Light, clean and short-lived, it suits the office, casual days and sport, and lacks the presence for a date or a formal evening.

About

Mandarin & Mint opens on green mandarin and bergamot with a thread of lemongrass, then turns herbal: fresh mint, lavender and clary sage make up the heart, with lemon balm, marjoram and a touch of jasmine behind them, and a subtle vetiver base keeps it grounded. It is brisk and bright rather than sweet. This is the lighter of Angela Flanders' two strengths. The house describes its Eau de Toilette as a lighter concentration of the same fragrance, for people who apply their perfume more liberally and more often; the Eau de Parfum is for those who spray less and want it to last. The house counts it among its bestsellers. Reviews of the Eau de Parfum are less kind about how long it lasts, so expect a short, bright wear from this strength and plan to reapply.
