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.

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Formal

Date

Its fresh, aromatic profile and moderate sillage make it ideal for office and casual wear, projecting professionalism without overpowering. While suitable for dates and formal events, its 'inoffensive' nature means it might not stand out as much as bolder choices.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Floris 1976 opens with a sparkling burst of citrus from bergamot and lemon, sharpened by a kick of pepper and the crisp, green scent of birch. This invigorating start gives way to an aromatic heart of cool lavender, herbaceous juniper, and subtle jasmine, balanced by earthy vetiver. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of smoky patchouli, clean musk, and warm amber, creating a polished and enduring freshness.
