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.

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
  • Citrus Aurantium Dulcis Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • 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 the purest, most traditional bar of Savon de Marseille, lathered up into a fine, fragrant foam. Marseille captures this moment perfectly, blending clean neroli and orange blossom with a sophisticated synthetic musk and petalia that mimics fresh linen. A subtle amber and woody base grounds the sparkling cleanliness, ensuring it feels both authentic and refined. It’s an unapologetically clean and airy scent that evokes sun-dried white sheets and pristine bathrooms.
