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

Midnight Birch opens with a zesty burst of citrus and lemon, quickly mellowing into an intriguing herbal heart. Here, crisp green notes mingle with the calming touch of lavender, spiced up by a hint of warm cinnamon and clove, alongside an invigorating whiff of eucalyptus. The dry down is a smooth, woody embrace, where earthy vetiver and guaiac wood blend with creamy sandalwood, amber, and a touch of sweet vanilla, all grounded by a soft musk.
