Whipped Cherry, Citron Fig and Radiant Nectar are a few of the fruity scents that make up CLEAN Beauty Collective’s Clean Reserve collection, which recently expanded to include a Sun-Kissed Papaya perfume. This creamy, tropical scent is a fruity floral gourmand described as “juicy but never sugary,” capturing the essence of a late afternoon in Rio.
Papaya, other tropical fruits and sparkling mandarin are among the first notes to introduce themselves in this well-balanced composition. Clean Reserve Sun-Kissed Papaya is sweetened by coconut cream, vanilla and tonka, but it also delivers depth and sophistication from jasmine and plum. Unlike some gourmands that are too cloying for warm-weather enjoyment, Sun-Kissed Papaya was intentionally crafted as “a sun-drenched gourmand made to be lived in.”
