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 Fall
Also Works:
Summer

The crisp fig leaf, citrus, and green facets make this ideal for spring and early fall, offering a breezy and natural feel. Its lightness can work in summer, but the subtle woody drydown is less suited to cold winter days.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Its understated, clean green freshness never overpowers, making it perfect for office and everyday wear. The subtle sillage and natural vibe also work well for casual or daytime dates, but it's too light for highly formal or athletic settings.

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.

About

Dune Pour Homme opens with a burst of crisp fig leaf, citrus and aromatic herbs, conjuring the sensation of cool sea air drifting over sun-warmed dunes. The heart blends moss and hedione with transparent florals, creating a breezy, green freshness that feels both modern and timeless. Cedar and sandalwood in the base provide a gentle, woody structure, softened by subtle vanilla and tonka. The result is an airy, contemplative fragrance that whispers sophistication, never shouting for attention.
