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.

Its fresh, invigorating citrus profile makes it perfect for casual and sport settings, offering a clean, uplifting scent. While its moderate projection prevents it from being too distracting, its bright character makes it less suitable for very formal events. Many reviews highlight its appeal for summer daytime wear, aligning with a relaxed, versatile vibe.

About

Orange Sanguine opens with an incredibly juicy and realistic trinity of blood, bitter, and mandarin oranges, evoking the sensation of peeling fresh fruit. As it settles, a fresh spicy heart of jasmine and pepper emerges, adding a subtle warmth and sophistication. The dry down introduces a gentle woody amber and tonka embrace, providing a creamy, soft base that grounds the initial citrus zest without overpowering it.
