Allas listed

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

The only note listed for Pur Kinkan is kumquat, so this is a one-note citrus scent. Kumquat is sharp, juicy and a little bitter, which suggests a clean and sparkling fragrance rather than a sweet one. Created by Mathilde Laurent, it should wear as a short, bright burst of zest. It is a feminine citrus that keeps things simple and light, with no heavy base to weigh it down.
