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

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Sea Water, bergamot and orange top notes with a passionfruit-musk-vanilla heart give Matin d'Été a bright, aquatic-fruity character built for warm weather - the name itself translates to 'summer morning'.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual
Also Works:
Formal

This extrait is ideal for close encounters; its intimate projection makes it perfect for casual wear, office settings, and dates where subtlety is key. Its sweet, warm accords are less suited for high-energy activities or very formal, imposing environments.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Imagine the very first rays of summer dawn, captured in a bottle. Bright bergamot and orange burst forth, quickly softened by a delicate marine breeze. As it settles, a creamy vanilla and warm amber emerge, entwined with the subtle, intriguing sweetness of passionfruit. A clean musk and lily of the valley keep it from becoming too heavy, lingering as a 'cozy, hug-like' skin scent.
