Phebo Hortelã Verde is a Cologne launched in 2019. Hortelã Verde opens with Bergamot, Lime, and Mint, settles into a heart of Green Notes, Lavender, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Hyacinth, Musk, and Cedar. Phebo's Hortelã Verde carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A truly refreshing blast of green mint, this is a perfect, realistic pick-me-up for sweltering summer days. Shame about the staying power, but it's worth reapplying for that initial natural kick.

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Summer
Also Works:
Spring

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its overwhelmingly fresh and clean profile, make it suitable for casual wear and sports. While it could work in an office, it's a bit too relaxed for formal events and not quite sensual enough for dates.

About

Opens with an invigorating pop of zesty bergamot and lime, swiftly followed by a vibrant, realistic mint that isn't cloying or medicinal. As the initial green rush settles, subtle lavender and lily-of-the-valley notes emerge, creating a clean, almost soapy feel. It eventually dries down to a soft, musky cedar base with a hint of floral hyacinth, retaining a fresh cleanliness throughout.
