Molton Brown Geranium Nefertum is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Carla Chabert. Geranium Nefertum opens with Bergamot and Fig Leaf, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Geranium, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, and Osmanthus. Molton Brown's Geranium Nefertum carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This one's a divisive ode to moss and fig that either hits you with comforting warmth or a 'pins and needles' Sweet Tarts vibe. Definitely not a safe blind buy, so sample before you commit.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its distinctive woody and green accords, combined with a polarising reception, make it less ideal for office wear where subtlety is key. However, its unusual character and enveloping warmth lend themselves well to casual and intimate settings, sparking conversation or creating a unique personal aura.

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.

Other declarable allergens

About

Geranium Nefertum opens with a fresh, green burst of fig leaf and bergamot, quickly transitioning to a heart of crisp geranium and delicate jasmine. The experience then deepens into a woody, earthy base where sandalwood, cedar, and oakmoss are softened by the unique, apricot-like sweetness of osmanthus and a hint of labdanum's resinous warmth. It's a journey from verdant lightness to a complex, moss-draped forest floor.
