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.

Its depth and potential sweetness could be a bit much for a formal office setting, but the elegant floral-fruity balance makes it a fantastic choice for dates or evening casual wear. Reviewers frequently mention its suitability for 'night' or its 'enveloping' nature, suggesting it's best for occasions where you want to leave an impression.

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

  • 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

Essencial Feminino opens with a juicy burst of mandarin and green apple, bright and invigorating. This citrusy freshness soon mingles with a heart of romantic rose and delicate violet, softened by a touch of ripe peach and a hint of spicy ginger. As it dries down, a warm embrace of caramelised woods, creamy sandalwood, and soft musk emerges, leaving a sophisticated yet playful trail. It's a complex dance of fresh, floral, and subtly gourmand notes.
