The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Soft Spot by Phlur, crafted by Honorine Blanc and launched in 2024, is an Oriental Floral fragrance that balances floral sweetness with powdery musk and woody warmth. The composition opens with a bright citrus-aromatic accord of bergamot and mandarin before the heart notes of freesia and jasmine introduce a soft, white floral bouquet. This floral heart is complemented by vanilla orchid and water lily, which add an unexpected sweetness and depth. The base notes of musk, amber, and sandalwood create a warm, enveloping finish that feels both intimate and serene.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays to pulse points — Soft Spot blooms gently over time, so it's best to let it settle into your skin. The citrus top notes are bright but fleeting, while the musky base offers a lasting warmth that reads better close to the skin than in the air.
