Sweet
Sweet by Ellis Brooklyn is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2021 in the designer price tier. It opens with pear, ambrette seed and bergamot, moves into violet, iris and heliotrope and dries down to marshmallow, amber and cashmere wood. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Pear Crisp, watery and green-sweet. Clean and modern.
- Ambrette Seed The only natural musk. Pear-like, warm and slightly boozy.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Violet Powdery, sweet and a bit retro. Parma Violets in flower form.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Heliotrope Almond, vanilla and powder. Smells like marzipan and old-fashioned makeup.
Dry-down
- Marshmallow Soft, sugary and pillowy. Pure comfort.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Cashmere Wood Soft, fuzzy, slightly musky wood. Adds a blurred warmth.
