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.

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
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Moss

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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

This one is from perfumer Christopher Sheldrake. The opening is rose and geranium, a green-edged floral start. The heart adds palmarosa, which keeps the rosy theme going with a slightly lemony, herbal edge. The base is honey, patchouli and moss, which turns the scent sweet, dark and earthy. It is a rose with a damp, mossy undertone, and the honey gives it a warm finish.
