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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Imagine the soft caress of jasmine petals on a warm breeze, leading you to the shoreline. The heart of this scent is a beautiful, airy marine note, not harsh or overly salty, but an impression of the ocean itself - vast and serene. It settles into a creamy, sweet base of vanilla and tonka bean, softened by a clean, lingering musk. It's a dreamy, sun-drenched floral marine that evokes a paradise island without ever feeling cloying.
