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.

About

Millennia opens with a lively burst of clementine and bergamot, quickly ushering in a rich tapestry of spicy notes, with prominent nutmeg and cardamom. The heart blooms with a luxurious floral bouquet of violet, lily, orchid, lotus, and lilac, lending a soft, powdery quality. This all settles into a warm, creamy sandalwood base, which provides a serene and inviting finish.
