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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Look by Vera Wang opens with a bright citrus burst before revealing a heart of lush jasmine and elegant lily. Its tranquil progression settles on a creamy, warm sandalwood base, offering a refined and modern floral scent experience. Apple and mandarin open it crisply before freesia, jasmine and lily fill out a classic white-floral heart, with sandalwood and vanilla warming the drydown. An easy, feminine daytime scent for spring.
