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.

About

New Journalist Eau de Parfum opens with apple leaf, mandarin and lemon, a crisp, green citrus start. The heart brings lotus, lavender and geranium, giving a clean, herbal floral feel. Sandalwood, vetiver and amber form the base, adding a dry woody warmth. It is a fresh, aromatic scent that stays tidy and approachable from start to finish.
