Liis Ethereal Wave is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2023. Ethereal Wave opens with Bergamot and Cardamom, and settles into a heart of Blond Woods and Tea. Liis's Ethereal Wave carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This is a truly divisive scent. For those who love it, it’s an ethereal, clean tea; for others, it’s an overpriced disappointment that smells like a cleaning product or an overly familiar Elizabeth Arden dupe. Expect poor longevity and intimate sillage.

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.

Its intimate sillage and clean, fresh profile make it perfect for office wear or casual daytime outings, where it won't overwhelm. However, its lack of projection and sophisticated depth renders it less suitable for formal events or romantic evenings where a bolder statement might be preferred.

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

Ethereal Wave opens with an energetic burst of tart bergamot that quickly settles into a cool, refreshing black and white tea accord. A delicate whisper of cardamom adds a subtle aromatic spice, while soft blond woods provide a clean, refined base, evoking the serene atmosphere of a high-end spa lounge or sun-drenched Muji store.
