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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for most settings without being overpowering, leaning slightly more towards evening wear due to its warmer base. The refined blend of notes ensures it's appropriate for formal events and dates, but it's not so intense it couldn't work in a casual office setting.

About

Opens with a zesty, clean burst of lemon, lime, and a hint of orange blossom, delivering an initial freshness. The heart then introduces a sophisticated blend of aromatic lavender and geranium, spiced gently with cardamom and nutmeg. This complex mid-section mellows into a warm, earthy base of creamy sandalwood, rugged vetiver, and subtle oakmoss, rounded out by a touch of sweet tonka bean.
