Eden Perfumes No.042 Envy is an Eau de Parfum. No.042 Envy opens with Bergamot, Magnolia, Freesia, and Peach, settles into a heart of Hyacinth, Rose, Jasmine, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. Eden Perfumes's No.042 Envy carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

No.042 follows the green, hyacinth-led structure of Gucci's original 1997 Envy closely, but the fresh floral accord reads thinner and the woody-mossy base fades sooner than the discontinued designer version it's built on.

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.

About

No.042 opens with a fresh, verdant blend of bergamot, magnolia and freesia, lifted by soft peach and pineapple - a close nod to the alpine-meadow freshness that made Gucci's original Envy so distinctive in the late 90s. Hyacinth leads the heart alongside lily of the valley, jasmine, violet, rose and iris, keeping the floral bouquet green and dewy rather than sweet or heavy. The base brings musk, cedar, sandalwood and oakmoss together for a clean, slightly earthy finish that grounds the composition without weighing it down. Against the designer original, which built its reputation on a genuinely striking, dewy-green freshness with real staying power, this version feels lighter and less vivid, with the green facets softening into a simple clean-musk finish well before the day is done. It still offers an easy, pleasant way to experience that late-90s green-floral style, and works nicely for office wear or casual daytime use across the warmer months.
