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.

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

212 Silver opens with a crisp, bright splash of mandarin, quickly softened by a lush bouquet of rose, jasmine, and peony. A subtle spark of pepper adds a modern edge, preventing it from leaning too sweet. The dry down is a comforting embrace of creamy sandalwood and clean musk, leaving a refined and lasting impression. It's a symphony of fresh florals grounded by a warm, delicate base.
