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.

Also Works:
Date Sport

Its moderate longevity and sillage, combined with its fresh and clean floral profile, make it ideal for office and casual settings where subtlety is key. It's less suited for formal events due to its lack of gravitas and for dates where something more distinctive might be preferred.

Other declarable allergens

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

In Red Celebration Edition opens with a bright, zesty burst of mandarin and bergamot, given a subtle aromatic twist by cardamom. This quickly transitions into a soft, romantic heart where rose and jasmine blend with the gentle green earthiness of violet leaf and the creamy richness of gardenia. The dry-down is a clean, comforting embrace of soft musk, warm sandalwood, and a whisper of classic oakmoss, grounding the floral freshness without adding too much weight.
