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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its fresh, clean, and understated floral character makes it highly versatile for casual wear and suitable for office environments without being overwhelming. While it possesses an elegant quality, it's perhaps not quite bold enough for modern formal occasions. It's clearly not designed for sport due to its delicate composition.

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.

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

Spring Rain ushers in a gentle, fresh floral bouquet, led by the delicate, green sweetness of lily of the valley and the lush sophistication of jasmine. A soft, clean rose note blossoms, underpinned by a whisper of cinnamon that introduces a subtle, warm spiciness, preventing it from straying into overly saccharine territory. It settles into a serene, almost 'raining petals' freshness, evocative of a dewy English garden after a spring shower.
