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.

Built on aromatic, tuberose and white floral - a composition that sits best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Date Formal

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

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

Reviving opens with a sharp, green burst of petitgrain and tarragon, quickly joined by the bright, citrusy lift of bergamot. As it settles, a rich floral heart unfolds with creamy tuberose and classic rose, underpinned by a deep, earthy oakmoss and warm woody notes. A subtle hint of clove adds a touch of aromatic spice, giving it a complex, almost vintage character that lingers beautifully.
