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:
Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent oud and amber accords, combined with high sillage and longevity, make it unsuitable for an office environment. This opulent fragrance is best reserved for formal events or a special date night where its powerful presence can shine.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove

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

Dominant opens with a zesty burst of citrus and orange, bright and inviting, before swiftly diving into a rich, spicy heart of clove intermingled with sweet jasmine. The real showstopper, however, is the deep, dark oud that anchors the scent, warmed by a luxurious amber. This is a complex, almost animalic blend that truly asserts itself.
