Scent Profile

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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal Sport

Its moderate sillage and clean, fresh profile make it suitable for office wear, but the overall versatility means it shines across casual and date settings too. The lack of heavy spice or deep gourmand notes keeps it from feeling overly formal, though its elegance means it wouldn't be out of place.

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

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Léonie opens with a zesty burst of mandarin and blackcurrant, quickly softened by a gentle wave of lavender and petitgrain. As it settles, a lush white floral heart of jasmine and orange blossom emerges, gracefully mingling with the initial freshness. The dry down introduces a warm, enveloping base of musk, cedar, and a hint of vanilla and ambergris, adding a subtle sweetness and creamy depth.
