The Body Shop The Apple Blossom is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008. The Apple Blossom settles into a heart of Amber, Lemon, Orange, and Jasmine. The Body Shop's The Apple Blossom carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A divisive scent, either loved for its fresh, simple apple charm or dismissed as synthetic shampoo. It's a fleeting spring fling that sadly won't be back.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Its very weak longevity and intimate sillage make it suitable for close-quarters like the office, as it won't offend. It's best suited for casual daywear, particularly in spring, as its light, fresh apple notes are ideal for everyday, low-key situations.

About

Imagine a crisp, green apple plucked straight from the tree, its sharp, juicy zest immediately apparent. This isn't a complex journey, but a straightforward, bright fruity blast that some find delightfully sparkling, like an apple soda. A whisper of floral 'blossom' attempts to soften the edges, but the apple remains the star, fading into a gentle, muted fruitiness on the skin. It's a scent that promises a moment of fresh, simple joy before quickly disappearing.
