Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely Sheer is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. Lovely Sheer opens with Bergamot, Mandarin, and Orange Blossom, settles into a heart of White Woods, Gardenia, and Pink Pepper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Vetiver. Sarah Jessica Parker's Lovely Sheer carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Divisive, but if you're after a lighter, fresher take on the original 'Lovely' without the heavier patchouli, this clean, musky citrus-floral is worth a sniff, especially for its price.

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 moderate longevity and sillage, coupled with its fresh, clean profile, make it ideal for casual wear and the office, where it won't overpower. While some find it too light for formal events, its 'sheer' quality makes it suitable for warmer weather activities.

About

Lovely Sheer opens with a bright, zesty burst of mandarin and bergamot, softened by delicate orange blossom. This fresh, airy introduction soon blossoms into a heart of crisp gardenia and subtle white woods, spiced with a hint of pink pepper. The dry down is a comforting, clean musk, interwoven with earthy vetiver and a warm whisper of amber, leaving a sheer, delicate trail.
