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 soft sillage and gentle accords make it ideal for close-quarters like the office or casual settings, where it won't overwhelm. The lack of strong projection and its intimate nature mean it’s less suited for formal events or sports.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • 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 gentle whisper of citrus from bergamot and lemon, Hanamachi quickly blossoms into a soft, powdery floral heart. Violet and iris take centre stage, evoking images of vintage makeup and candied sweets, beautifully complemented by the subtle romance of rose and ylang-ylang. The base unfurls with a warm, clean musk, delicate vanilla, and a touch of sweet peach, leaving a comforting, intimate trail that's never overpowering.
