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

Its clean, non-intrusive projection and fresh character make it perfect for office and casual wear, while still feeling smart enough for daytime dates. It is versatile and never overwhelming.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Eternity Eau de Toilette opens with a vibrant rush of lavender, mandarin orange, and green notes, immediately evoking sunlit mornings and dew on grass. Herbaceous sage and basil blend seamlessly with floral jasmine and geranium in the heart, sustaining a fresh, aromatic energy. The base of sandalwood, vetiver, musk, amber, and rosewood grounds the composition in a woody, subtly warm finish that never becomes heavy. The overall impression is clean, classic, and enduring-an icon of modern masculine freshness.
