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.

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

Néroli Bleu opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of bergamot, uplifted by a subtle hint of mint and a sharp, excellent quality black pepper that gives a unique tingle. The heart introduces the star, bright neroli, beautifully complemented by the powdery softness of mimosa, the aromatic spice of cardamom, and a warm, stimulating ginger. The dry down is a comforting embrace of creamy orange blossom, warm amber, and a clean, lingering musk, creating a sophisticated and clean, yet warm, skin scent.
