You'll be greeted with a sweet and fresh first impression of bergamot, pink pepper and clove bud oil, along with warm vanilla. Then comes a more floral, sweet, and powdery center with jasmine and orris oil, before finally an undercurrent of patchouli and frankincense leave a deep and woody lasting impact. Alina was created by Lush perfumer of the same name who was inspired by the generations of women that came before her. Three distinct fragrances, each representing a different generation born in the last 100 years, are blended to create a multi-layered and timeless scent. She named the fragrance Alina—a name given to her by her grandmother. In this YouTube video, Alina herself talks us through the inspiration for her new fragrance that shares her name.
