Illuminum Wild Berry Blossom is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Michael Boadi. Wild Berry Blossom opens with Cyclamen and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Raspberry Bloom, Floral Notes, Magnolia, and Peony, and dries down to a base of Virginia Cedarwood and Musk. Illuminum's Wild Berry Blossom carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a surprisingly sophisticated fruity-floral, leaning more 'grown-up happy woman' than 'girly sweet'. It's natural and delicate, yet some find its drydown a touch too jammy. Worth a sniff for a unique take on the genre.

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.

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

Opening with a fresh burst of cyclamen and blackcurrant, Wild Berry Blossom immediately evokes a natural, slightly sweet garden. The heart blooms into a lush bouquet of raspberry blossom, magnolia, and peony, creating a delicate yet full floral body. This settles into a soft, warm base of Virginia cedarwood and musk, providing an elegant anchor to the earlier fruit and florals.
