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.

Built on powdery, lactonic and violet floral - a composition that sits best in spring, summer and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:

Its soft projection and clean, lactonic floral profile make it perfectly suited for office wear and casual settings, offering a comforting presence without being intrusive. While it excels in intimate settings like dates, its subdued nature means it might get lost in a boisterous 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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Opens with a delicate, bright tea and bergamot sparkle, swiftly inviting you into a soft, powdery heart where basmati rice and a bouquet of violet, rose, and jasmine intertwine. The creamy, lactonic base of milk and musk provides a comforting warmth, rounded out by hints of amber and smooth woods. It's an airy, enveloping scent that feels both familiar and refreshingly new.
