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.

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

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

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

Britannia opens with a warm, spicy hit of amber, cardamom and coriander, giving it an immediate rich and slightly exotic feel. The heart reveals a luminous blend of orange blossom and neroli, offering a brief, bright counterpoint before the scent deepens. The base is all about assertive leather, dark woods, and a hint of animalic ambergris, creating an enveloping, luxurious, and undeniably sensual dry-down.
