Note weights are our estimate from each note's place in the pyramid, not the share of the formula. Brands do not publish formulations.
Performance
Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Chocolate, incense and patchouli thrive in the cold, so winter and autumn lead, with a cool spring night possible and summer unwise.
Occasions
A formal and romantic-evening fragrance with great presence, and too intense for the office or sport.
Seasons
Truffle, chocolate and incense are cold-weather notes. It belongs to autumn and winter, and feels thick in the heat.
Occasions
Dark and dressy, it is built for formal evenings and dates. Too weighty for the office or the gym.
