A bright, cheeky floral with a divisive edge. Some find its watery freshness captivating, others are put off by a synthetic sting. It's not a simple crowd-pleaser, but a unique, assertive floral statement.

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.

Office Date

With moderate sillage and a strong fresh floral character, this perfume is versatile for casual and daytime wear, especially in spring. Its brightness might be a bit much for formal events or intimate dates, but it fits well in an office if applied lightly.

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.

About

Malachite Special Edition bursts forth with a prominent water hyacinth note, delivering a fresh, aquatic floral opening. This evolves into a lush heart where a blooming peony takes centre stage, bringing a dewy, slightly exotic character. The composition settles onto a soft sandalwood base, anchoring the vibrant florals with a gentle, woody warmth.
