Clean fragrance brand by/rosie jane is leaning into fragrance’s next big flavor note with the launch of MATILDA, a passion fruit-forward scent. Bright, juicy, and effortlessly wearable, the fragrance reflects a growing consumer appetite for fruit notes that still feel refined and skin-like.
MATILDA opens with tart passion fruit for an immediate burst of freshness, and softens into airy meringue and tropical fruit notes. The dry-down settles into golden musk with a subtle touch of sandalwood, delivering the brand’s signature “second-skin” effect.
Inspired by founder Rosie Jane Johnston’s daughter, MATILDA is designed as an everyday fragrance, making it versatile for both morning and night. Launching exclusively at Sephora via its app on February 2nd and in stores on February 3rd, the release taps directly into where 2026 fragrance trends are heading and celebrates fruit-forward, mood-boosting and wearable elements.
