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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

This leans very casual and sporty due to its fresh, aquatic, and citrus profile, making it a perfect fit for daytime summer wear. Its moderate longevity means it's less suited for formal events or longer date nights, but it's acceptable for an office environment if applied sparingly.

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

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

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

Aquatic Lime bursts open with a juicy, sweet watermelon note, swiftly followed by a zing of bergamot and sharp lime that truly wakes you up. The initial fruitiness then mellows into a cool, almost salty marine heart, freshened by a hint of aromatic rosemary, stopping it from being overly sweet. It finally settles into a clean, earthy dry down of vetiver and cedar, keeping it grounded and subtly masculine. Think summer day, seaside breeze, and a refreshing drink.
