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
Also Works:
Fall

Its citrus, woody and oud composition leans towards spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its fresh, clean, and woody profile makes it highly suitable for office wear without being overpowering. The balanced nature also allows for versatility across casual and some date scenarios, though it's a bit too crisp for very formal events or high-intensity sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Bitter Orange
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Mars opens with a zesty, bright burst of bergamot and bitter orange, immediately invigorating the senses. This vibrant citrus top quickly melds into a refined heart of clean akigalawood and dry cedar, adding a contemporary, almost metallic edge. The base settles into a smooth, warm embrace of creamy sandalwood and resinous labdanum, providing a sophisticated depth that lingers beautifully on the skin.
