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

Shine opens with a juicy burst of pomegranate and strawberry, bright and sweet but never cloying. This fruity fanfare soon settles into a graceful heart of delicate lily of the valley and soft peony. The dry-down reveals a comforting, grown-up blend of powdery notes and warm woods, offering a surprising depth and maturity to balance the initial playfulness.
