Ellis Brooklyn Fawn is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Fawn opens with Bergamot, Neroli, and Magnolia, settles into a heart of Rose, Lily of the Valley, and Coconut, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vanilla. Ellis Brooklyn's Fawn carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a mixed bag, folks. Some love its creamy, beachy vibe, others find it a "neroli mess" or a synthetic, sunscreen nightmare. If you're after a warm-weather scent that's not too sweet and you like a prominent neroli-white floral combo, this could be your jam. Just don't expect universal adoration.

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.

With moderate longevity and sillage, Fawn is suitable for daily wear without being overwhelming. Its fresh, clean, and summery profile makes it ideal for casual outings and even the office, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events.

About

Fawn opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot and neroli, quickly softened by the lush, creamy magnolia. As it settles, a sweet coconut milk accord emerges, weaving through delicate rose and lily of the valley, evoking sun-warmed skin and breezy summer days. The base of warm amber, soft vanilla, and gentle musk grounds the scent, creating a subtle, comforting finish.
