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.

About

This elixir opens with a lively, aromatic burst of lemon verbena and mandarin, quickly warmed by the piquant spice of clove and the rich woodiness of rosewood. The heart blossoms with a classic rose and lily of the valley alongside a vibrant cinnamon and carnation, bringing a comforting floral-spice blend. It settles into a luxurious base of sweet vanilla and resinous amber, deepened by earthy vetiver and mystical myrrh, leaving a lasting, sensual warmth on the skin.
