The crisp air of an early afternoon in a bustling city park, where the scent of fresh-cut grass mingles with the aroma of blooming flowers and the distant hint of street food.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2020 by Andrea Maack, Lightsource is a citrus fragrance that captures the essence of freshness with a vibrant mix of aromatic and spicy notes. The composition opens with a bright burst of citrus and green accords, followed by a heart of rose and white florals that add depth without heaviness. The base layers of fruity and sweet nuances round out the scent, creating a harmonious blend that feels both invigorating and comforting.

How to wear it

Apply Lightsource to pulse points for a light yet lasting effect. The citrus opening is bright but quick to evolve into its floral heart notes, so a few sprays will ensure you catch each layer throughout the day.
