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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Its moderate sillage and clean, approachable scent profile make it ideal for the office or casual wear without being overpowering. While sweet notes lend themselves to dates, it's not quite sophisticated enough for formal events, and its sweetness wouldn't suit a workout.

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

Other declarable allergens

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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 a bite into a juicy red apple, softened by a creamy vanilla and tonka bean embrace. Delicate rose and jasmine florals intertwine, adding a touch of elegance, while a subtle base of musk, sandalwood, and patchouli provides a gentle, warm anchor. It's a smooth, sweet, and approachable scent with a modern twist.
