Annayake Annayake Pour Elle is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000, created by Émilie Coppermann and Lucas Sieuzac. Annayake Pour Elle opens with Bergamot, Fig Leaf, and Tea, settles into a heart of Floral Notes and Lotus, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Musk. Annayake's Annayake Pour Elle carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This unheralded gem is a beautifully balanced, fresh green tea scent that evokes serene Japanese gardens. It's often compared to CK One but with a sophisticated twist. The only sticking point for some is its shy projection and moderate longevity, which means it sits close to the skin after a few hours.

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.

Its fresh, clean, and subtle nature makes it perfect for office and casual wear, as it won't overpower. The limited sillage means it's an intimate choice for a date, while its elegance allows it to slip into formal settings without shouting. It's too refined for active sport, but light enough for gentle activity.

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
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Annayake Pour Elle opens with a crisp, invigorating burst of bergamot and verdant fig leaf, swiftly infused with the calming, aromatic essence of tea. As it settles, delicate floral notes emerge, intertwined with the aquatic transparency of lotus. The drydown reveals a soft, clean musk and subtle woody undertones, grounding the fragrance in a refined, earthy embrace.
