Gallagher Fragrances Amongst Waves is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017, created by Daniel Gallagher. Amongst Waves opens with Orange, Lime, Ginger, and Melon, settles into a heart of Salt, Tulip, Water Accord, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Vanilla. Gallagher Fragrances's Amongst Waves carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one is truly divisive: people either adore its unique, fruity-aquatic vibe or absolutely detest its synthetic, overripe melon character. Don't blind buy, sample it first to see which camp you fall into.

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.

Its long-lasting nature and moderate sillage make it suitable for casual settings, particularly in warm weather, as many reviewers highlight. While it's too strong and distinctive for formal or office wear, its fresh and playful character can work well for dates or outdoor activities.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

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

Amongst Waves opens with a blast of juicy, slightly sweet melon, apple, and a zesty lime kick, with a hint of spicy ginger. As it settles, a prominent sea salt note emerges, blending with a watery accord and a subtle floral touch of iris. The dry-down introduces a surprisingly earthy patchouli, grounded by a soft vanilla, creating a multifaceted summer experience.
