Launched in 2020 by Ormonde Jayne and crafted by perfumer Linda Pilkington, Tanger is a composition that seamlessly blends the crisp freshness of citrus with the enveloping warmth of amber and woody notes. The opening notes of Italian Mandarin and Bergamot introduce a vibrant brightness, while Ylang-Ylang and Neroli add subtle floral undertones. This bright start gradually gives way to Cashmere Wood, Rose, and Madagascar Vanilla, creating a warm and comforting base that is both sensual and inviting.

Application Tips
Tanger’s top notes fade within an hour, so apply two sprays initially to capture its full vibrancy. The base notes develop over time, making it ideal for a day that transitions from bright morning to cozy evening.

Founding perfumer · 19 fragrances
Linda Pilkington grew up in Cheshire, England, and spent fourteen years in Brazil running a soya bean farm and an ice-cream business before returning to London. A friend's request for a quality scented candle led her into perfumery; when that friend, who worked for Chanel, commissioned a candle, orders grew quickly and she founded the niche house Ormonde Jayne in 2000, named for the road she lived on and her middle name. Her fragrances, created with Geza Schoen, are known for unusual ingredients drawn from her travels.

The quiet moment after a brisk walk in the woods — where the air is crisp with citrus, and the earthy scent of moss lingers on your skin.
