Ellis Brooklyn Fable Eau de Parfum
This Product Is: a clean eau de parfum
Why We Love It: Ellis Brooklyn Fable Eau de Parfum is an elegant orange blossom scent inspired by the first meeting of Androcles and the Lion. The gorgeous initial bloom plays with dewy violet, petitgrain and honeysuckle before being rounded by the warmth of crisp amber and cedarwood. The moral of the famous Aesop fable is kindness—Androcles removes a thorn from the lion’s paw—a notion as lovely as the fragrance.
Made in small batches in New York, each Ellis Brooklyn fragrance is thoughtfully cared for from production start to finish - from the biodegradable and petrochemical-free Bakelite compression cap, to the environmentally-friendly glass bottle sourced from an EcoCert supplier.
Top Notes: Neroli, black currant
Mid Notes: Honeysuckle, petitgrain, dewy violet
Dry Notes: Crisp amber, cedarwood

What's Behind "Fragrance"?
US law does not require that companies be transparent about the ingredients in fragrance/parfum. Credo believes in your right-to-know. We require all brands to categorize the fragrance in each product (see chart above), and encourage brands to fully disclose all scent ingredients.

All products are cruelty-free and formulated without ingredients on The Dirty List™️. At Credo, "clean" goes even deeper. Learn more.
Ellis Brooklyn was founded by Bee Shapiro, a New York Times beauty columnist, who started the line after her daughter, Ellis, was born and began looking for a nice fragrance that contained a non-toxic formula. The line was named Ellis Brooklyn, which brings together the beautiful creation of renowned perfumer Jerome Epinette with the natural formulas made in upstate New York. Each whiff and breath makes you swoon.
