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.

About

Elite I opens with a bright, zesty burst of lemon and mandarin, immediately invigorating the senses. This vibrant citrus then gives way to a crystalline marine heart, subtly interwoven with pristine white florals like lily, gardenia, and tuberose. The base settles into a soft, musky embrace of sandalwood and vanilla, adding a touch of smooth warmth without ever losing its clean, airy nature. It's an ocean breeze bottled, refined and long-lasting.
