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

Me First opens with a juicy, tart burst of lychee, like a tropical breeze on a summer's day. This vibrant fruitiness soon settles into a heart of deep, yet never dark, rose, subtly spiced with a hint of warm cardamom. The base emerges with creamy sandalwood and grounding cedar, offering a smooth, woody finish that lingers beautifully on the skin. It's a delightful dance between fruity freshness and sophisticated warmth.
