The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Verbena by Chloé was launched in 2019 and is a creation of perfumer Mylène Alran. This fragrance captures the essence of a fresh, invigorating burst of nature with its citrusy, herbal, and aromatic accords. The opening notes of verbena and lemon are bright and uplifting, reminiscent of a sunlit garden. As it settles into the base, conifer and fresh spicy notes add depth, creating an overall effect that is both crisp and warm.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light sprays to capture its full vibrancy. The citrusy top notes are most noticeable initially but will settle into a warm herbal base over time. Best suited for daytime wear when the crisp freshness can energize your day.
