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

Fantastic Man opens with star anise, bergamot and cardamom, a bright citrus start with a sweet licorice-like and spicy edge. The heart brings lavender, incense and geranium, giving a clean aromatic body with a hint of smoke and a green floral touch. The base is vetiver, oakmoss and patchouli, which is earthy, mossy and dry. Overall it is an aromatic, woody-green scent that feels composed and grown-up rather than sweet.
