Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.
Best Occasions
Its potent vanilla, white floral, and rose accords, combined with reports of long-lasting performance and noticeable sillage, make it too dominant for an office setting. However, its deep, seductive character is perfectly suited for dates, sophisticated evenings, and special occasions, with some reviewers even enjoying it casually.
