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.

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

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Saintly Smell is Perfume Parlour's budget take on A*Men Ultra Zest. It opens with Mint, Ginger, Tangerine, leads into a heart of Coffee, Cinnamon, Black Pepper, and dries down to Vanilla, Patchouli, Tonka Bean. The overall character is warm spicy with aromatic and citrus facets. Rendered for value, it is a little simpler and quieter than the designer version, yet faithful to the core character and easy to reach for day to day.
