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 intimate sillage and moderate longevity make it ideal for office wear and casual settings, as it won't overpower. The clean, fresh profile is also suitable for lighter activities, though its lack of projection makes it less impactful for dates or formal events.

About

Imagine stepping out of a refreshing shower, wrapped in a fluffy towel. That's Free Hugs. It opens with a bright burst of lemon and mandarin, softened by a hint of juicy peach and calming lavender. The heart unfurls with a delicate blend of jasmine and violet, given a clean, slightly powdery lift by skin musk and aldehydes. It settles into a warm, gentle base of sandalwood and benzoin, with just a touch of earthy patchouli for depth.
