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.

Its potent nature and prominent amber and woody accords make it a strong choice for formal and date settings, where its rich complexity can truly shine. While it can be worn casually, its depth might be a bit much for everyday wear, and it's definitely not for sport.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose
  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla
  • Ylang-ylang Cananga Odorata Flower Extract from Ylang-Ylang

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

Opening with a fizzy sparkle of aldehydes and bright mandarin, it quickly warms to a rich heart where opulent rose and ylang-ylang intertwine with a unique wallflower note. The base is an exquisite tapestry of creamy amber and vanilla, grounded by earthy patchouli and a distinct, almost salty woody accord from rosewood and oakmoss, evoking a winter beach at sunset.
