by Ellis Brooklyn
Fable by Ellis Brooklyn presents a clean, bright, and airy white floral fragrance centered around honeysuckle and neroli. The opening is vibrant and citrus-tinged with neroli and petitgrain, creating a fresh, slightly soapy effect that evokes clean linen or a just-washed desert blossom. The honeysuckle note dominates in the early stages—clear, sweet, and true-to-life—making it a standout choice for those who love floral perfumes with less complexity. As it dries down, the scent becomes more woody and grounded, with muted amber and cedar laying a warm, dry base beneath the lingering florals. Although the scent is unassuming and not expectedly complex, it performs well in its intended realm—spring and summer daytime wear. It's clean but not sterile, intimate but not invisible, reminiscent of a quiet forest clearing or a linen-draped room in a quiet hotel. The fragrance blends seamlessly with other Ellis Brooklyn scents, especially when layered with Raven, in which case it becomes more balanced and sophisticated. However, its endurance is short on skin, lasting only a few hours, and it lacks projection—making it more confidence-based than noticeable.
