The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2023, After Hours by Sol de Janeiro is a Floral Fruity Gourmand fragrance created by perfumer Gino Percontino. This composition opens with bright notes of black currant and pear, creating an initial burst of freshness that transitions smoothly into the heart where night-blooming jasmine and freesia add a touch of floral sweetness. The base notes of vanilla, whipped cream, caramel, amberwood, and patchouli weave together to create a warm, comforting finish without becoming heavy.
Apply one to two sprays — the initial fruity notes are vibrant and long-lasting. The creamy base notes develop gradually over time, so waiting a few minutes before dressing helps them fully integrate with your skin.
