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 moderate longevity and sillage make it versatile, though the earthy quality might be a bit too casual for formal events. The tropical notes, often perceived as an 'orange citrus', lend themselves well to casual daytime wear and even a relaxed date setting, especially in warmer weather. Community sentiment suggests it's better for day wear, aligning with its tropical profile.

About

Hot Fever starts with a bright tropical fruit trio: pitahaya, mango and guava, juicy and sweet. The heart is an unusual soil tincture, which adds an earthy, damp note against the fruit. The base of amber, patchouli and woody notes gives warmth and a slightly dark, sweet depth. It is a fruity, warm scent that mixes the sugary with the earthy, made to be noticed rather than whispered.
