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.

About

Chelsea Nights opens with a mysterious blend of hazelnut and saffron, warmed by a rich cacao pod. As it settles, a spicy heart of sesame and turmeric emerges, softened by a hint of rose. The base is an opulent mix of dark suede and earthy patchouli, creating a deeply luxurious and somewhat controversial scent profile.
