The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2013 by Ramón Monegal, Pure Mariposa is a Floral Fruity fragrance that balances the freshness of water and citrus with the warmth of woody and sweet notes. The composition opens with a crisp blend of yuzu, bergamot, and grapefruit, which gives way to the lush sweetness of plum, black currant, and osmanthus. At its heart, Pure Mariposa embraces white florals like tuberose and jasmine, while its base notes of cashmeran, patchouli, and sandalwood provide a grounding warmth that lingers throughout the day.

How to wear it

Apply Pure Mariposa to your pulse points — the wrists, neck, and behind the ears. The top notes are bright but fade quickly, so layering it throughout the day can help maintain its fresh floral warmth. It's best for daytime wear when you want a scent that is both elegant and approachable.
