This Is Not A Blue Bottle 1.2 opens with Pink Pepper and Ivy, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang, Lily Of The Valley, and Lilac, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla.

Its moderate projection and fresh, clean profile make it excellent for office wear and casual settings, as many reviews suggest. It's a bit too light for formal events, and while pleasant, perhaps not distinctive enough for a romantic date.

About

This Is Not A Blue Bottle 1.2 opens with a green, slightly spicy kick from ivy and pink pepper, quickly transitioning into a lush heart of lily of the valley, lilac, and ylang-ylang creating a distinct yellow floral sweetness. The base grounds this airy bouquet with soft sandalwood, musky undertones, and a gentle vanilla, developing into a clean, creamy finish. Expect a blend of fresh florals with a subtle sugary warmth.
