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.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • 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

Ballerina No 2 opens with a tart, juicy raspberry and bright bergamot, quickly joined by a soft orange blossom. The heart blossoms into a complex floral bouquet of dewy rose, powdery iris, and delicate violet, with a subtle hint of magnolia. The drydown settles into a warm, gently sweet base of amber, vanilla, and a touch of earthy patchouli, creating a nuanced, slightly nostalgic scent profile.
