Shay & Blue London Atropa Belladonna is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Julie Massé. Atropa Belladonna opens with Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Narcissus, and dries down to a base of Patchouli and Vanilla. Shay & Blue London's Atropa Belladonna carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a bit of a mixed bag. Some find it a clean, fresh, everyday winner, while others are left cold by its shampoo-like vibe and lack of presence. Don't expect the 'femme fatale' promise of the name to be delivered; this is far more subtle and polite.

About

Atropa Belladonna opens with a tart, juicy burst of blackcurrant, quickly joined by the heady, almost green aroma of narcissus and jasmine. This floral heart is underpinned by a gentle, earthy patchouli, with a whisper of creamy vanilla adding a soft finish. It's a clean, almost 'out of the shower' scent, with a sophisticated fruitiness that steers clear of overly sweet territory.
