Fragrance information:

Imagine a fragrance that seems to flutter above the skin, leaving behind a sweet, fruity-floral trail.

Hanae Mori Butterfly is precisely the kind of composition that captivates from the very first second with its tenderness and depth.

Launched in 1996, this women's fragrance has become a true icon of the brand founded by legendary Japanese couturier Hanae Mori.

Its DNA—where East meets West—has been expressed in this perfume with remarkable harmony. The bottle is crowned with an elegant butterfly, as if hinting at the lightness and airiness of the composition.

A Symphony of Notes

The composition opens with a vibrant berry cocktail: black currant, blueberry, strawberry, and blackberry create a sweet, juicy introduction.

Then, at the heart, a floral bouquet blooms: jasmine, peony, rose, and ylang-ylang add sensuality and elegance.

A base of almond, rosewood, sandalwood, and Virginia cedar lends a warm, comforting trail. The fragrance belongs to the oriental floral-fruity family.

Character and Wearability

Butterfly is a fragrance with a delicate trail that does not overwhelm but gently envelops. It is ideal for everyday wear, especially in warm weather.

For a harmonious scent experience, 1–2 sprays on the skin are enough; for clothing, it is better to walk through a cloud of fragrance.

This way, you will emphasize your femininity without risking an overly intense scent cloud.

Similar Fragrances

If you love Hanae Mori Butterfly, consider Lalique Amethyst with its berry accents, Hermès Caleche Eau Delicate for lovers of floral elegance, and Yves Rocher Voile d'Ocre with its warm woody nuances.

They share Butterfly's same aura of tenderness and sophistication.

Persistence
The persistence of a fragrance is determined by how long it can be felt. It is a characteristic associated with ingredients that evaporate slowly. Persistence depends on the physical properties of the perfume ingredients—mainly their volatility and environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Sillage
Imagine a light cloud of fragrance that, like an aeroplane trail, remains in the air after your appearance. This is the sillage - a subtle or vivid imprint left by the most diffuse element of a perfume composition. The sillage can be almost invisible when it is felt only by you and those around you. Or it can be so expressive that its presence is noticed even long after you have left.

Oh, how pleasant it is to wear this scent! I've been enjoying it for more than one season now. It's truly captivating. Right now, it's more like strawberry jam, but once it warms up a bit, sour notes emerge that remind me of wild strawberries. This adds interest and depth!! Every time I put it on, I discover something new

This butterfly is certainly bright and noticeable, but there's something off about it. Against the backdrop of ylang and rose, it looks somewhat out of place. At first, it seems like just an ordinary butterfly, with red and black wings, sitting on a flower and drinking nectar. But then, as if something scares it, it soars into the air. And that's when total chaos begins: the smells of jasmine, ylang, and rose mix, and it all seems a bit strange. The butterfly flew away, leaving only chaos behind, and the sandalwood, which should have added warmth, only intensifies the feeling of discomfort. Overall, not impressed

The scents are quite simple, but when I need something bright and joyful, I always think of butterflies or another Hanae Mori perfume. Light berries that feel very pleasant, with a creamy undertone. I can't quite say if I like it or not, but there's something mysterious about them 🤔

How pleasant it is to feel this fragrance! The butterfly, of course, could have been pink, that would have added a twist. The berries at the beginning sound simply delightful - sweet and with a slight tartness, it's a real charm. And then floral notes join them, making the fragrance softer, but the tartness doesn't disappear, it becomes even more interesting. The finish of the fragrance is also pleasing: light woody notes of cedar and sandalwood create an atmosphere of comfort and warmth. All in all, it's just super!

This fragrance is a real berry sweetness, delicate and beautiful. It's just perfect for summer, filling you with bright colors, sunshine, and joy. Although it might not be entirely my age, I still wear it with pleasure. It's simply love 💖

Hanae Mori Butterfly is a true berry cocktail. I clearly smell blueberry and blackberry, which is exactly what I expected when buying it. I adore these notes, for me, it's one of the coolest summer perfumes. Even in the heat, it performs beautifully, not overpowering. Simply wonderful! 🍓

The name Nanay Murey Butterfly confused me a bit. I didn't feel like a butterfly; rather, I wanted to land on the ground where strawberries, blueberries, and other delicious things grow. The scent is sweet, but the floral notes balance it well. I really liked it, so I bought it as a backup to lift my spirits
