Costume National Scents Scent Gloss is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2004, created by Laurent Bruyère. Scent Gloss opens with Rose, settles into a heart of Tuberose, Magnolia, and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Clean Musk. Costume National Scents's Scent Gloss carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

A divisive floral that's either a pretty, innocent delight or a 'boring' candied rose with too much clean musk. It's safe, youthful, and surprisingly long-lasting.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its soft sillage and clean, inoffensive floral profile make it excellent for office and casual wear. While it has a delicate, romantic feel suitable for dates, some find it too 'girly' for more formal settings, though its elegance is often noted for events like weddings.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

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

Scent Gloss opens with a sweet, syrupy rose, reminiscent of candied petals or even grape-like nuances, quickly joined by the ethereal bloom of orchid. The heart expands with creamy tuberose and magnolia, adding a smooth, luminous quality to the floral bouquet. A clean, laundry-like musk underpins the entire composition, providing a soft, almost powdery drydown that keeps the florals fresh and bright.
