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

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its potent projection, warm spicy accords, and luxurious feel make it less suitable for a typical office environment. However, these same qualities, particularly its elegant warmth and sensual depth, ensure it shines on dates, formal events, and even adds a touch of class to dressed-up casual wear, especially in cooler weather.

About

Coco EDT opens with a sharp burst of spicy cloves, softened by the sweet embrace of peach and brightened by mandarin. As it develops, a rich bouquet of rose and jasmine emerges, intertwined with warm, resinous amber and powdery labdanum. The dry-down is utterly luxurious, settling into a creamy blend of sandalwood, vanilla, and tonka bean, leaving a trail of sophisticated warmth.
