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.

About

Zanzibar opens with a gentle floral bouquet of jasmine and ylang-ylang, softened by a hint of rose, giving it an immediate sense of warmth and natural bloom. This soon mingles with bright, slightly tart lemon and lemon balm, underscored by a subtle spicy current of clove. The journey moves through a dry cedar heart to a refined base of creamy sandalwood and a hint of incense, creating a balanced and enduring close that feels both clean and comforting.
