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.

About

Arcipelago Men opens with a gentle burst of peppery spice, eased by aromatic rosemary and sage. The heart introduces a surprising touch of sweet lily of the valley and jasmine, adding a delicate floral creaminess. As it settles, a smooth, grounding base of cypress, cedar, and other woody notes emerges, creating an impression of refined, subtle nature.
