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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

The ginger and pink pepper opening is bright enough for spring, but the powdery iris heart and the ambroxan-sandalwood base pull it towards autumn, when a soft spicy floral has room to sit. It holds up in winter too. Summer is its weakest season - the iris turns heavy in real heat.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its moderate sillage and versatile blend of soft spice and clean florals make it suitable for various settings, from a professional environment to a special evening out. While refined enough for formal wear, it's not overly heavy, ensuring it won't overwhelm during casual encounters.

About

A vibrant burst of pink pepper and sharp ginger greets you, brightened by a zing of bergamot. This energetic opening soon softens into a sophisticated floral heart where powdery iris mingles with the fresh sweetness of peony and a subtle hint of rose. The base settles into a smooth, creamy sandalwood, elevated by the clean, almost mineral hum of ambroxan, leaving a refined and lasting impression that's both comforting and contemporary.
