Neroli

Also known as orange blossom, this iconic ingredient expresses the femininity and elegance of Miss GG. Neroli is wonderfully fresh, floral and sparkling, and it’s often used in bridal bouquets: historically it’s associated with youthfulness, purity and new love.

Jasmine

Jasmine is a tiny, delicate white flower with a rich and powerful scent, most noticeable in the early morning as the cooler temperatures cause the flowers to open. Its name comes from the Persian word for “Gift from God”, and it symbolises pure femininity, loyalty and above all happiness. A bright and modern fragrance note.

Tuberose

A symbol of sensuality and forbidden passion, tuberose is a truly irresistible scent. This iconic flower has been used in perfumery for hundreds of years and is said to have been Queen Marie Antoinette’s signature fragrance. A uniquely extroverted and fascinating scent for the wild at heart.

Peony

Sweet, fresh and spicy, the peony is typically associated with love, romance and good fortune. It’s also a symbol of shyness – maybe because of its bright pink, densely packed petals? A charming scent that is said to have soothing and calming properties.

Ylang ylang

A comforting and romantic fragrance, ylang ylang is believed to have calming and uplifting properties, and is traditionally associated with weddings and honeymoons. With rich spicy and fruity notes, its rich yellow flowers are seen throughout the islands of the South Pacific.
