Scent Profile

Composition

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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

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

It kicks off with a bright, zingy lemon, spiced up by ginger and pink pepper, giving it an uplifting, warm entry. The heart delves into an earthy cypriol with a rich, balsamy depth. It settles down into a refined leather base, interwoven with smoky cedar and a prominent, high-quality patchouli that lingers, offering a grounded, almost resinous finish. It’s got that natural, effortless charm.
