Marks & Spencer Water Jasmine is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020. Water Jasmine opens with Lemon and Lime, settles into a heart of Rose and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Cedar. Marks & Spencer's Water Jasmine carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This M&S gem, now sadly discontinued, was a refreshing burst of clean, citrusy floral. A perfect 'fresh out of the shower' scent, it's universally appealing and often compared to more expensive options, proving that great fragrance needn't break the bank.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • 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

Imagine stepping out of a cool, refreshing shower, skin still dewy. Water Jasmine opens with a bright, zesty splash of lemon and lime, immediately invigorating. This crisp citrus then gracefully entwines with delicate, airy jasmine, wrapped in a clean, soft musk that evokes pure freshness. A subtle, grounding cedar note lends a touch of quiet sophistication, preventing it from being overly sweet. It's an understated white floral, underlined by a clean, woody character.
