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 summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its fresh, clean, and often light nature makes it ideal for casual wear, office settings, and sport, provided one doesn't mind frequent reapplication given its reported poor longevity. It might be too understated for many formal occasions.

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

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Sole Di Positano Acqua bursts open with a sparkling mix of petitgrain and mandarin, delivering a lively, verdant citrus punch. This effervescent start melts into a heart of heady white florals, particularly jasmine and orange blossom, underscored by the unique, subtly peppery shiso. The base settles into a gentle, clean musk with soft sandalwood and a hint of moss, offering a polished yet ephemeral finish.
