Clean Skin is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Skin opens with Bergamot, Orange Blossom, and Honeysuckle, settles into a heart of Peony, Orchid, and Skin Musk, and dries down to a base of Salt, Musk, Cedar, and Praline. Clean's Skin carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

A truly divisive 'skin scent' that triggers love-it-or-hate-it reactions. While some adore its clean, sweet, and comforting vibe, others find it too synthetic, cloying, or even sickly. Definitely not a safe blind buy.

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.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Imagine emerging from a luxurious shower, skin still dewy with an intimate, musky warmth. Clean Skin opens with a bright, delicate whisper of orange blossom and honeysuckle before dissolving into a soft, powdery heart of orchid and 'skin musk'. The dry down is a comforting embrace of praline sweetness, offset by intriguing salty notes and a grounding cedar base, creating a 'your skin but better' illusion.
