Divisive, affordable, and often called 'boring' or 'basic', Born Lovely is the Marmite of the celebrity fragrance world. It's a clean, fresh floral that some adore for its inoffensive quality, while others find it completely forgettable or even off-putting.

About

Opening with a bright, zesty mandarin and the soft, blush fragrance of peony, Born Lovely quickly transitions into a bouquet of intoxicating white florals. Honeysuckle and freesia intertwine, leading to a subtle, powdery dry-down of comforting cedar and a whisper of caramel sweetness, softened by a clean patchouli. It's a fresh, delicate floral with a gentle woody warmth.
