In short
Bitter-green and floral at first, then cool, powdery and mossy.
Concept

Safety and compliance
- Status. Regulatory assessment pending. No formula-level safety assessment is documented yet, so this page does not say the formula is compliant for any use.
- IFRA Standards. The IFRA Standards Library covers 6 of its materials: alpha-Isomethyl Ionone (Methyl ionone, mixed isomers, Amendment 49); Benzyl Salicylate (Restriction: Benzyl salicylate, Amendment 49); Oakmoss Absolute (Oakmoss extracts, Amendment 49); Citronellol (Restriction: Citronellol, Amendment 49); Jasmine Absolute (Grandiflorum) (Restriction: Jasmine absolute (grandiflorum), Amendment 49); Phenylacetaldehyde (Restriction: Phenylacetaldehyde, Amendment 49).
- Skin sensitisation. EU-labelled fragrance allergens present as ingredients: Benzyl salicylate, Citronellol, Evernia prunastri extract, alpha-Isomethyl ionone. Natural materials carry further allergens as constituents, declared from the supplier’s data, and Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 extends the list to be labelled on products placed on the EU market from 31 July 2026.
- Product category. Limits depend on the product: fine fragrance, leave-on and rinse-off products have different IFRA categories, and each Standard sets its own figure for each.
