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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Fall

A powdery fruity-floral of the early nineties - peach and mango against rose, violet and iris - which puts it squarely in spring, when powder and soft fruit read as fresh rather than heavy. The amber and musk underneath let it work through a mild autumn. It is too light and too powdery to hold its own in winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its gentle powdery and floral nature makes it perfectly suited for daily wear, like casual outings or the office, where it provides a subtle, pleasant presence. It's too soft and refined for sports, and might be a touch too understated for truly formal events.

About

Borbonese opens with a soft, comforting haze of powder, quickly joined by delicate violet and iris, creating a wonderfully refined floral heart. Juicy hints of peach and mango add a subtle, sweet fruitiness, while rose and peony lend a timeless elegance. It all settles into a warm, inviting base of musk and amber, leaving a trace that's both clean and subtly sensual.
