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 Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its enormous sillage and longevity make it inappropriate for an office setting where it could overpower. However, the bold and luxurious accords, especially the vanilla and iris, lend themselves well to making a statement on a night out or at a formal event.

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

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

Imagine stepping into a dimly lit, opulent room. Aromatic Conflict Black opens with a rich, almost resinous sweetness, thanks to a heavy dose of vanilla and myrrh. This quickly melds into a sophisticated, powdery iris and violet leaf heart, imparting an earthy, slightly plush texture. It's a dense, enveloping fragrance that leaves a memorable, weighty trail.
