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

Desert Star opens with a sharp, zesty burst of bergamot before settling into a rich, complex heart of earthy vetiver, creamy cashmere wood, and a lively kick of pink pepper. The dry down is a deeply satisfying blend of clean musk, robust cedar, and warm amber, leaving a luxurious and enduring trail.
