Olfactory Notes
Ingredients
8x stronger than retinol and 11x faster too. Fine lines visibly fade into nothingness and radiance reaches untold levels of luminosity. Simply massage the apricot-toned moisturising night cream across face, neck and décolletage to unlock its age-defying and sensorial benefits. Both overnight rejuvenation and deep hydration are offered by this all-in-one night cream that may be the only product required after cleansing in the evening. Elegant notes of rich, Madagascan vanilla are expertly paired with soft citrus aromas to promote the perfect night’s rest followed by a radiant morning glow.
Key Ingredients:
Retinyl Retinoate – 8 times more powerful than retinol and stable both day and night, this non-irritating vitamin A helps to stimulate collagen synthesis and supports the regeneration of skin cells.
Encapsulated Retinaldehyde – Proven to work up to 11 times faster than retinol, retinaldehyde is a revolutionary new form of vitamin A that targets fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation and uneven skin texture.
Drone-Targeted Copper Peptide – A collagen-supporting copper peptide encapsulated in a polymer system which dives through the layers of the skin to specifically target collagen-producing cells.
Ceramide Complex – An intelligent combination of ceramides which mimic the skin’s natural lipid barrier; intensely restoring and nourishing.
Multi-Weight Hyaluronic Acid – With a unique ability to attract and retain more than 1,000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid draws moisture from the air into the skin to provide intense hydration.
Squalane - A natural emollient, that helps to restore the skin’s natural defence barrier whilst also deeply moisturising for smooth and supple skin.
Vitamin E – A lipid-soluble antioxidant that is naturally present in the skin, vitamin E protects the skin from free radicals and regenerates vitamin C for optimum power.
After cleansing in the evening, massage r-Retinoate Intense evenly across face, neck and décolletage. This product should be phased in gradually as it contains retinaldehyde. Use twice a week for the first 2 weeks, every other night for the next 2 weeks, then every night.

Avoid the delicate eye area initially; once your skin has adjusted, you can carefully apply around the orbital bone, being cautious to avoid direct contact with the eyes.
For optimal results, use this product as the last step in your evening skincare routine, after any serums but before any oils.
If using other active ingredients, such as vitamin C in the morning, ensure they are applied at separate times of the day.
Start by using it twice a week and gradually increase frequency as tolerated, building up to nightly use.
A slight tingling sensation may occur upon application, which is normal.
If irritation persists, reduce frequency of use.
Always wear sunscreen during the day while using this product.
Top Notes: Soft Citrus
Heart Notes: Madagascan Vanilla
Base Notes: The base notes are not explicitly mentioned but likely complement the vanilla and citrus with subtle creamy or powdery nuances to enhance the overall comforting and luxurious feel. This could potentially include notes like musk or sandalwood, though it is speculative based on the described "silken cashmere" texture and intended use as a night cream.
