Ormonde Jayne Damask is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2020. Damask opens with Lemon, Pear, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Pebbles, Amber, and Vetiver. Ormonde Jayne's Damask carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This is a juicy, tart, and effervescent rose that's bound to turn heads, especially if you're into that Delina vibe but want something a bit more grown-up and less overtly sweet. It's a crowd-pleaser that's still got some intrigue.

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.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon
  • 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

Damask opens with a zingy burst of blackcurrant, tart lemon, and juicy pear, creating an immediate sense of vibrant freshness. This lively fruitiness quickly mingles with a plush, dewy rose heart, accented by a hint of spicy pink pepper. As it settles, a clean musk and warm amber emerge, underpinned by a grounding whisper of vetiver and intriguing mineral notes, giving it depth and a refined finish.
