Hanae Mori Hanae Mori Eau Fraiche is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008. Hanae Mori Eau Fraiche opens with Grapefruit and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Blueberry, Rose, Jasmine, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Rosewood, and Almond Tree. Hanae Mori's Hanae Mori Eau Fraiche carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A divisive take on a classic, this Eau Fraiche is either a fleeting citrus tease or a worthy, lighter-but-not-really-lighter alternative to the original. Gourmand lovers, take note.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Opening with a bright, sparkly burst of grapefruit and tangerine, this fragrance quickly settles into a creamy, sweet heart of mixed berries - think blueberry, strawberry, and blackcurrant - interwoven with soft florals like rose and jasmine. The dry-down reveals a warm, almost edible quality with almond tree and various woods providing a smooth, gourmand-leaning base that lingers beautifully on the skin.
