Phebo Água de Rosmarino is a Cologne launched in 2018, created by Benjamin Bélizon and Claudia Carolina Simonato Boranga. Água de Rosmarino opens with Lemon, Nutmeg, and Rosemary, settles into a heart of Lily, Pepper, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Musk, Vetiver, and Lavender. Phebo's Água de Rosmarino carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A divisive scent, Água de Rosmarino proves that not all botanicals belong in a bottle. This is a "love it or hate it" fragrance that leans heavily into its herbaceous namesake.

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 weak longevity and intimate sillage make it suitable for close-quarters casual wear or a quick refresh before sport, without overpowering. The fresh and aromatic notes lend themselves well to daytime use.

About

Opens with a brisk, almost sharp, burst of Sicilian lemon and a generous hit of aromatic rosemary, softened slightly by a touch of nutmeg. The heart introduces a surprising floral note of lily, quickly spiced up with black pepper and cardamom, adding a warm, piquant edge. It settles into a clean base of lavender and musk, grounded by earthy vetiver, leaving a fresh but distinctly green trail.
