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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

This is a versatile fresh scent, perfect for daytime casual wear and post-gym revitalization. Its moderate projection means it won't overwhelm in an office setting, but it lacks the depth for formal events or evening dates.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lippia citriodora absolute from Lemon Verbena
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

It kicks off with a juicy burst of watermelon and bright bergamot, given a modern twist by spicy cardamom. The heart unfolds into a fresh, green depth, with herbal basil and zesty lemon verbena mingling with the sophisticated, powdery touch of orris. As it settles, a clean base of earthy vetiver, patchouli, and warm amberwood emerges, underpinned by a soft, lingering musk, conjuring a damp, aquatic freshness.
