In this scent, sustainably sourced mandarin oil mingles with delicate heart notes of magnolia, plus a warm vanilla base with upcycled black amber. As 7 Virtues claims, Clementine Dream lasts for 24 hours and lingers for 72. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 35% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Extended Scent Duration:** Fragrances with prolonged scent longevity are becoming popular for consumers seeking lasting sensory experiences. - **Sustainable Scent Ingredients:** There is a growing trend towards the use of sustainably sourced and innovative raw materials in fragrance creation. - **Upcycling in Fragrances:** The introduction of upcycled elements like black amber sets a precedent for eco-conscious innovations within the fragrance industry. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Perfume and Fragrance:** The perfume industry is increasingly experimenting with long-lasting and memorable scents, diverging from traditional formulations. - **Sustainable Beauty:** In the realm of sustainable beauty, companies are exploring the use of eco-friendly and ethically sourced ingredients. - **Organic and Natural Products:** The organic and natural products sector is seeing a surge in demand for fragrances that incorporate responsibly sourced elements. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vibrant Creamsicle-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creme-de-clementine.md) - [Candied Lychee Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candied-lychee.md) - [Concentrated All-Day Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrospect-by-merit.md) - [Sensitive-Safe Summer Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citrus-reverie.md) - [Crisp Fall Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/byrosie-jane-remi.md) - [Brazil-Inspired Citrusy Perfumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brasilis-eau-de-parfum.md) - [Cactus Water Hair Mists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dream-veil-hair-body-mist.md) - [Modern Citrus Candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citrus-season.md) - [Festive Citrus Perfumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festive-cologne.md)
