About Gentle Hug
Gentle Hug, a Floral Embrace from Nearest but Lost
Gentle Hug is a floral fragrance for men and women from Nearest but Lost. Launched in 2020, it balances bright citrus with a delicate floral heart and a soft, warm base.
True to its name, the scent feels close, comforting, and surprisingly versatile, designed to sit gently on the skin rather than announce itself loudly.
The opening features bergamot, lemon, and elemi. These top notes create a luminous, fresh start, with elemi adding a subtle resinous texture that keeps the citrus from feeling too sharp.
At its heart, the fragrance blooms with lily of the valley, jasmine, violet, cassia, and rose. The blend is primarily white floral, with a powdery softness from violet and rose that gives it a gentle, romantic quality.
The base is built on sandalwood, velvet, amber, and musk. Sandalwood and musk provide a creamy warmth, amber adds depth, and the velvet note reinforces the almost tactile coziness that the perfume’s name promises.
The composition carries accords of powdery, aromatic, citrus, white floral, musky, woody, fresh, green, floral, and rose. This variety makes it feel alive in different ways depending on when and where you wear it.
As a shared scent for men and women, Gentle Hug works for both everyday wear and more intimate settings. Its floral but warm character makes it especially appealing for those who prefer fragrances that are soothing rather than overpowering.
It will appeal to fans of white florals and warm bases who are looking for a soft, elegant scent that feels close to the skin and easy to wear.
Gentle Hug is an inviting floral with a bright opening, a powdery floral heart, and a velvety base—a comfortable choice for anyone who wants a scent that feels like an embrace.
