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

Saffron Hamra opens with a lavish burst of saffron, immediately announcing its rich, warm presence. This isn't a shy spice; it's bold and almost chewy. Soon after, the smokiness of cade oil emerges, weaving through the saffron to add a dry, slightly leathery, and subtly animalic depth, like smoke curling from a distant fire. A whisper of rose gently rounds out the edges, ensuring the overall composition remains smooth and incredibly refined, creating a seamless, high-quality blend.
