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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Vanilla Muse opens with a bright, zesty flick of lemon, softened by the delicate, almond-like whisper of heliotrope. The heart unfolds into a plush peach note, enmeshed with the creamy, exotic fullness of ylang-ylang, all underpinned by a pervasive, comforting vanilla. As it settles, a clean, gentle musky warmth emerges, reinforcing the vanilla's smooth richness with a hint of benzoin's balsamic sweetness, creating a cosy, powdery drydown.
