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

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Bitter Orange
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Imagine biting into a perfectly ripe, juicy mango, its sweetness balanced by a zesty kick of grapefruit and bitter orange. That's Mango Nectar. As it settles, a soft apricot blossom emerges, lending a delicate floral touch that stops it from becoming *too* tropical, before finally resting on a clean, light musk with a hint of jasmine. It's sunshine in a bottle, vibrant and refreshing.
