About Gentle Hug
Gentle Hug, a Warm Floral from Nearest but Lost
Gentle Hug is a floral fragrance created for men and women by Nearest but Lost. It arrived in 2020 with a composition that feels both fresh and softly enveloping, rather like a gentle embrace.
The perfume is built around a bright citrus opening, a romantic floral heart and a comforting base, making it a versatile addition to any fragrance collection.
The perfume opens with bergamot, lemon and elemi. Bergamot and lemon give an immediate sense of clarity and sparkle, while elemi contributes a slightly balsamic warmth that eases the transition into the more floral middle.
In the heart, lily of the valley, jasmine, violet, cassia and rose come together. It is a classically white floral composition, with a powdery finish from the violet and a subtle green edge from the cassia, which prevents it from becoming too sweet.
The base notes are sandalwood, velvet, amber and musk. This combination is creamy, soft and deeply reassuring: sandalwood and musk give body, amber adds a gentle glow, and velvet brings out the tactile, comfortable quality that gives the perfume its name.
A closer look at the accords reveals a powdery, aromatic, citrus, white floral, musky, woody, fresh, green, floral and rose blend. That wide range of facets means the fragrance can be worn through the seasons, shifting in character from one occasion to the next.
Since Gentle Hug is positioned as a shared fragrance, it sits as easily in a daytime routine as it does in an evening setting. Its overall mood is warm and intimate, which makes it a good match for quiet dinners, long walks or simple moments at home.
Those who enjoy refined white florals with a soft, powdery texture and a warm, comforting base will find this easy to love.
Gentle Hug is a beautifully balanced floral: fresh at the start, tender in the middle and velvety at its finish. A fragrance that truly lives up to its name.
