Divisive. Some find this a beautiful, natural, sunny rose with a fresh lift, perfect for summer. Others get a bitter, dry, woody scent that's a struggle and anything but pink.

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:
Spring Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its moderate performance and fresh, airy profile make it ideal for casual wear and the office, where it won't overpower. The subtle nature means it's less suited for formal events or dates where you might want to make a bolder statement, though some find it perfect for hot summer workouts.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

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

Sun & Roses opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot, grapefruit, and a crisp green apple. As this initial freshness settles, a delicate floral heart emerges, dominated by a garden-fresh rose, softened by the powdery subtlety of violet and the dewy touch of lily of the valley. The base offers a clean, airy musk alongside the gentle warmth of cedar, sandalwood, and a whisper of vanilla, grounding the brighter notes without weighing them down.
