Scent Notes
Ginger, Lemon
The first impression is bright and invigorating. Amalfi Lemon opens with crisp, sun-kissed citrus notes, immediately joined by warm, spicy Ginger that adds depth and complexity. A second wave of Lemon rounds out the top, creating a luminous, energetic opening that feels both classic and modern.
What follows is a graceful heart that lets the interplay of citrus and spice breathe. The ginger warmth deepens, while the lemon remains present but refined, creating a romantic without being heavy character that feels intimate and wearable.
The fragrance settles into a warm skin-level presence that carries throughout the day. With 6–8 hours of longevity and noticeable sillage, Lemon & Ginger projects elegantly in mild to warm climates, staying close enough to feel personal yet present enough to be noticed.
Performance & Wear
Expect 6–8 hours of vibrant wear on skin with noticeable projection. Apply to pulse points for optimal diffusion. Layer with the Body Oil to extend longevity beautifully. Perfect for spring and summer wear. HumanSafe™ Verified · IFRA Compliant · 100% Vegan & Cruelty-Free.
