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

Art Deco Cypress opens with a bright, zesty burst of petitgrain, sharp and invigorating, quickly giving way to the star of the show: a photorealistic, intensely woody cypress. This verdant heart is eventually softened and deepened by a rich, resinous amber, creating a sophisticated and enduring aromatic journey. Expect a clean green, woody essence with an underlying warmth.
