Le Couvent Maison de Parfum Santa Cruz is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Santa Cruz settles into a heart of Citrus, Bergamot, Cedar, and Vetiver. Le Couvent Maison de Parfum's Santa Cruz carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This citrus-eucalyptus blend is a divisive beast, with some calling it a refreshing figgy dream and others a short-lived, chalky disappointment. If you're after a sophisticated summer scent that deviates from the norm, it's worth a sniff, but don't expect it to blow your socks off.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

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

An invigorating blast of zesty citrus and bright bergamot immediately awakens the senses. This quickly gives way to a cooling, aromatic heart of eucalyptus, lending a unique herbal freshness. As it settles, a dry, woody base of cedar and vetiver emerges, offering a grounded, almost fig-like warmth that lingers softly on the skin.
