Angelica Sinensis

Angelica Sinensis takes its name from its standout ingredient - the aromatic, slightly bittersweet root also known as 'female ginseng' in traditional use, prized in perfumery for its earthy, celery-like green facets. The fragrance opens with a crisp citrus trio of bergamot, lemon and green leaves, giving an immediately fresh, slightly bitter-green first impression that sets up the angelica to come. As it develops, angelica itself takes centre stage alongside jasmine and lily of the valley - the root note's peppery, herbal quality contrasts nicely against the softer white florals, creating a heart that's more unusual and characterful than the brand's typical fruity-floral fare. The base resolves into amber, musk and cedarwood, a reliably warm and woody finish that grounds the greener, more herbal top and heart notes. This is one of the more distinctive compositions in the range, leaning into an uncommon note rather than chasing a specific designer silhouette. It reads as a fresh, slightly green unisex fragrance suited to transitional weather, where the herbal brightness and woody base both feel appropriate.
