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 Fall

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and autumn pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office

Its clean, understated character and weak projection make it suitable for casual wear or as a calming bedtime scent. The 'shampooey' and bath-product vibe, coupled with poor longevity, renders it less appropriate for more formal settings or dates where a stronger, more distinctive presence is desired.

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

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • 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

This is a clean, aromatic floral with a powdery heart. It opens with the crisp, herbaceous bite of clary sage and bergamot, leading into a floral bouquet of lavender, violet, and jasmine, underscored by a brisk eucalyptus and geranium. The dry down is a gentle, somewhat woody vanilla with a hint of earthy patchouli, creating a soft, almost 'shampooey' finish that aims for comfort over complexity.
