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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its sweet and musky profile, combined with good projection and longevity, makes it perfect for casual outings and dates where you want to be noticed without overwhelming. It's a bit too playful and sweet for most formal settings or the office, and definitely not built for sport.

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

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Alora opens with a burst of juicy plum and peach, softened by a clean lavender whisper. The heart blossoms with sweet white florals - jasmine and lily of the valley, interlaced with a tart raspberry zing and an earthy patchouli anchor. As it dries, a rich caramel and vanilla sweetness takes over, rounded out by warm musk, vetiver, and a hint of oakmoss, creating a comforting, gourmand base.
