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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean, and understated character makes it ideal for casual wear, office settings, and even sports where a strong sillage isn't desired. The poor longevity means it's not suitable for occasions demanding a lasting impression, like a formal event.

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
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • 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

Verbena opens with a sharp, invigorating blast of lemon and bergamot, almost like pure essential oil, before settling into a pleasant, clean aroma. The aromatic and herbal verbena soon emerges, softened by a hint of neroli and musk, lending a 'handmade soap' quality. A rose note adds a subtle, almost talcum-like powderiness in the dry down, making it surprisingly multi-faceted for such a fresh scent.
