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.

Best For:

Date

Its moderate sillage and longevity, coupled with a distinctly green and fresh character, make it suitable for casual wear and daytime activities. While unique, its bold green opening might be a bit much for formal settings, but its creamy drydown works well for dates.

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

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Spearmint
  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Spearmint
  • 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

Opening with a sharp, almost photorealistic blast of green notes and spearmint, Chlorophyll Gardenia immediately evokes crushed leaves and verdant freshness. This bold greenness mellows into a surprisingly creamy, yet still bright, gardenia heart, accented by a subtle peppery spice. As it dries down, a clean musk emerges, blending with the lingering floral creaminess for a unique, modern interpretation of a classic bloom.
