Apple Love
Apple Love by Ellis Brooklyn is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2025 in the designer price tier. It opens with apple, mandarin and peach, moves into osmanthus, lily of the valley and sugar and dries down to sandalwood, vanilla, praline, ambroxan and musk. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Apple Crunchy and tart or soft and red, depending on the treatment.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
Heart
- Osmanthus Apricot-and-leather floral. Unusual, warm and very wearable.
- Lily of the Valley Clean, green, dewy floral. Reads as 'fresh laundry' to most people.
- Sugar Plain sweetness. Usually there to round the edges off something else.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Praline Caramelised nuts. Sweet, toasty and very moreish.
- Ambroxan Clean, mineral, skin-like warmth. The engine behind most modern 'beast mode' scents.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
