The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 1978, Ghibli by Atkinsons is an Oriental Fougere fragrance that blends warmth and spiciness with woody and mossy accords. The composition opens with fresh spicy notes like petitgrain and clary sage before transitioning into a heart of carnation, geranium, jasmine, and rose. The base layers in sandalwood, cedar, pine, oakmoss, musk, tonka bean, olibanum, incense, and amber to create an enveloping warmth that feels both classic and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to your pulse points in the morning for an all-day presence. The musky and mossy base notes develop slowly over time, so a light application allows them to build naturally throughout the day.
