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.

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

Stella opens with a cheerful burst of mandarin, quickly giving way to a dewy, translucent rose and delicate peony heart. It's a clean, almost 'green' floral, avoiding any dated powdery notes. As it dries, hints of warm amber and subtle woods emerge, anchoring the fresh rose without weighing it down. It’s an uncomplicated, modern take on a classic flower.
