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 moderate sillage and long-lasting nature make it suitable for occasions where you want to be noticed without overwhelming. While some might find it a bit too bold for the office, its unique character makes it a strong contender for evening dates or casual outings, especially given the community's consensus for night wear.

About

Imagine the sharp, green spice of cardamom pods bursting, quickly followed by the rich, bitter aroma of dark roasted coffee beans. This isn't your average milky latte; it's a dry, almost arid brew, evoking the experience of traditional Arabic coffee. Hints of smoky wood and perhaps even a fleeting citrus zest dance through, adding layers of complexity to this decidedly unsweetened, robust blend. The overall impression is deep, aromatic, and far from your typical gourmand.
