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

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:

Its clean, fresh, and slightly spicy profile makes it highly versatile for office, casual wear, and even light sport. However, its moderate performance and lack of 'wow' factor mean it's less suited for formal events or clubbing where you want to stand out.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Spearmint Mentha Viridis Leaf Oil from Mint

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

Opens with a lively pop of lemon and cool mint, sharpened by a dash of pepper, giving that initial sparkling freshness. As it settles, the heart reveals a smooth, boozy vodka and crisp apple, lifted by a touch of spicy ginger. The dry down is warm and comforting, with amber and coumarin softening into a woody, slightly powdery embrace.
