Perfumer H Rain Cloud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Lyn Harris. Rain Cloud opens with Angelica and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, and Vanilla. Perfumer H's Rain Cloud carries a Statement verdict, a floral-led wear.

This one's a proper head-scratcher. Some reckon it's a sublime post-rain garden, others are getting musty old florals or even 'stale urinoir'. It's definitely not for everyone, but if you love creamy, waxy ylang-ylang and musk, you might just fall hard for its unique artistry.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its soft sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for close-quarters like a date or casual wear without being overwhelming. It's too quiet for formal events and totally unsuitable for sport, but could work in a relaxed office environment if applied lightly.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Imagine wandering through a lush, slightly overripe tropical garden shrouded in a soft, humid mist. Rain Cloud opens with a delicate whisper of orange blossom and the greenish, slightly bitter edge of angelica. The heart swells with a creamy, almost custardy ylang-ylang, giving it a waxy, opulent feel. As it settles, a warm, enveloping musk emerges, smoothed by a hint of bourbon vanilla and a subtle earthiness from vetiver, creating an impression of damp petals and saturated air.
