Relent

The hiss of an espresso machine two seconds before the cup arrives, where crisp citrus meets warm vanilla and soft florals in a moment of refined Italian luxury.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2010, Relent by Etro is a fragrance that balances bright citrus and powdery musk with the warmth of vanilla and white florals. The opening notes of Amalfi lemon, orange, and lime are crisp and refreshing, while eucalyptus adds a subtle freshness. As the scent develops, African orange flower and iris introduce a soft floral touch, leading to a base that combines tincture of rose, musk, vanilla, and amber for an enveloping sweetness.

How to wear it

Relent has a strong initial burst from its citrus top notes, which fade within about an hour. The base notes take over and gradually build warmth throughout the day. Apply one or two sprays to capture both the bright opening and the enveloping sweetness that follows.
