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

Tacit Eau de Parfum opens with an invigorating rush of yuzu and sparkling citrus, quickly joined by the vivid, green snap of basil and Mediterranean herbs. A soft, peppery edge of clove and aromatic fennel gives dimension to the airy freshness, while vetiver and cedarwood lend a gentle, earthy backbone. The result is a serene, nuanced composition that feels both brisk and natural, like a breeze through sunlit foliage. Transparent yet characterful, Tacit is the scent of subtle confidence and clean sophistication.
