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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

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

Always Red Femme bursts open with a juicy, bright mix of blackcurrant, pear, and a zing of lemon, evoking a fresh, sun-drenched orchard. The heart blooms with the delicate sweetness of peach blossom and a hint of jasmine, softened by the unique, fruity-herbal quality of davana. The dry down is a subtle embrace of earthy patchouli, green oakmoss, and grounding cedar, with just a touch of vanilla to smooth the edges. It’s a clean and uplifting scent, though some find a surprising 'green and dirty' quality lurking beneath the fruit.
