Launched in 2020, R.E.M. by Ariana Grande is a fragrance that weaves together sweet and powdery notes with surprising depth. Perfumer Alexis Grugeon crafted this Oriental Vanilla scent, balancing the caramel sweetness with zesty fig and quince, while lavender and pear blossom add a fresh floral touch. The base of musk and tonka bean grounds it in warmth and comfort, making R.E.M. a versatile choice for both day and night.

Application Tips
Apply two sprays for a balanced presence. The caramel sweetness is immediate but fades within an hour, giving way to the lasting warmth of tonka bean and musk. This fragrance reads better close to skin than in a large space.

The story behind the bottle.
The cozy feeling of settling into an armchair with a cup of warm milk and caramel, where the familiar comfort of powdery musk meets the unexpected freshness of fig.
