Oasis

Oasis is Atenai London's grounding, balance-seeking scent, a fruity-woody eau de parfum built around bergamot and sandalwood. The opening is bright and lightly fruity, bergamot and lemon sharpened with orange zest, pink pepper and ginger, and a touch of raspberry that keeps it soft rather than tart. Through the heart a gentle bouquet of rose, jasmine and ylang settles in, rounded out by patchouli, magnolia and lilac so the middle feels calm and cushioned. The dry-down is where Oasis makes its case: sandalwood and cedarwood anchor a warm woody base, with white musk, amber and a whisper of vetiver adding a clean, grounding finish. Performance is intimate and easy, an eau de parfum that hovers close to the skin for around four to six hours rather than projecting across a room. Its balanced, unhurried character makes it a natural everyday choice, comfortable at the office, on casual days and on relaxed evenings, and it works across much of the year with a lean toward spring and autumn. Like the rest of the range it is expressed across body care and home too, and on the shelf it sits in the calm, woody-fresh lane rather than the bold or the sweet.
