Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Winter

Built for the cooler edges of the year - spring and winter pair best.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its moderate sillage and 'old-world' charm make it suitable for formal events and romantic evenings. While unique, it's generally too distinctive and complex for a gym session, and might be a touch too elegant for everyday casual wear, though many enjoy it in warm weather for casual outings.

About

Step back into the past with Rome 1963, a fragrance that opens with an unexpected, almost savoury dark chocolate note, brightened by zesty bergamot. The heart blooms into a rich, complex white and yellow floral bouquet, where creamy tuberose and heady ylang-ylang mingle with subtle jasmine and a dry cedarwood. The scent deepens into a smoky, earthy base, with aromatic tobacco leaves and a grounding patchouli that conjures images of ancient libraries and hushed grandeur.
