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 Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

With moderate longevity and sillage, this clean and fresh scent is ideal for everyday wear, particularly in spring and summer. Its light character makes it perfect for casual outings, the office, or even a post-gym refresh, but it lacks the gravitas for formal events or the allure for dates.

About

Imagine stepping into a dew-kissed spring garden, where the bright, dewy crispness of lily of the valley mingles with a hint of juicy watermelon and sweet pear. The heart unfolds with a delicate bouquet of soft rose, ethereal jasmine, and fresh violet leaf, underpinned by the airy sweetness of freesia. It dries down to a gentle, clean base of Virginia cedarwood, soft musk, and warm sandalwood, leaving a serene and comforting trail.
