Michael Malul London Arashi Reef is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Doug Falcone.

Prepare for a proper online dust-up. This one's an "Erba Pura" clone, depending on who you ask, and it's sparking outrage in the fragrance community. If you don't care for the drama, you'll find a crowd-pleasing tropical fruit bomb.

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.

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.

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 a vibrant, sun-drenched escape where the air buzzes with juicy passionfruit, zesty tangerine, and tart red currant. This tropical explosion is softened by delicate orchid and jasmine, with a refreshing aquatic breeze carrying hints of sweet papaya. It all settles into a warm, creamy base of ambrox super, earthy vetiver, and smooth sandalwood, leaving a lingering, holiday-esque trail.
