O Boticário Arbo Female is an Eau de Toilette. Arbo Female opens with Green Notes and Pink Pepper, settles into a heart of Water Hyacinth and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Musk, Sandalwood, Vetiver, and Violet. O Boticário's Arbo Female carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A fresh, green floral that's a near-perfect dupe for Estee Lauder's Pleasures. It's a real shame it's been discontinued, as this gem was a beloved crowd-pleaser.

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.

  • 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

Opening with a crisp burst of green notes and a hint of piquant pink pepper, Arbo Female quickly settles into a heart of delicate water hyacinth and bright freesia. The dry down is a comforting blend of soft musk, creamy sandalwood, earthy vetiver, and a touch of powdery violet, creating a serene and natural aura.
