House of Sillage's Love is in the Air carries a Statement verdict, a woody-led wear.

A truly divisive scent, Love is in the Air is either a sophisticated, cuddly floral or an overpriced blast of baby powder and chemical soup. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, often depending on the weather and your skin chemistry. Don't blind buy.

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 intensity and powdery character make it less ideal for a typical office setting, but some find it suitable. It leans heavily towards romantic dates and dressier casual events, with many reviewers describing it as 'fairytale-like' or 'princess' vibes, fitting for special evenings. It's too rich for sport.

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

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

Opens with a juicy burst of plum and bright citrus, given a green, almost airy lift. It soon settles into a heart of classic rose and jasmine, softened by a hint of cedar that lends a gentle woodiness. The dry down is where it gets interesting: a clean musk intertwines with a subtle, earthy patchouli, creating a sweet, powdery warmth that some find comforting and others find cloying. Think elegant fruitiness evolving into a soft, romantic embrace.
