Atropa Belladonna

by Julie Massé

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.

Its clean, fresh character and often-reported subtle performance make it perfect for an office environment or casual daytime wear where it won't overpower. It's too understated for formal events and only suitable for intimate dates due to its low sillage.

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.
