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 Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

With a moderate sillage and fresh, clean notes, this cologne is ideal for casual daily wear and sports. It's perfectly acceptable for the office, but its slightly 'cheap cologne' character might make it less suitable for formal events or intimate dates.

About

This cologne opens with lavender, pear, water mint and apple, a crisp and juicy start. Grass, sea water and geranium make up the heart, adding a green, marine freshness. The base is a light mix of musk and sandalwood that keeps things soft and clean. It is a simple, aquatic and aromatic scent, cooling and straightforward, made for everyday use rather than for making a statement.
