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.

About

Jeffrey Dame opens this scent with lime, bergamot, marigold, pepper and grapefruit, a sharp and zesty start. The heart is a huge bouquet of gardenia, honeysuckle, carnation, hyacinth, orange blossom, ylang-ylang, lily of the valley, tuberose, jasmine and rose. The base of benzoin, musk and tolu balsam adds a sweet, resinous and soft finish. It is a feminine white floral, rich and full, with citrus keeping it lively.
