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.

Date Formal

With strong sillage and longevity, this intense white floral and amber blend leans more towards evening and cooler weather. Its richness would be too much for an office setting or casual daytime wear, but it's perfect for intimate dates or formal events.

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

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • 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

Opens with a vibrant burst of mandarin and orange blossom, quickly giving way to a rich, opulent heart of white florals - jasmine, tuberose, and gardenia. As it settles, a warm, resinous embrace takes over, built on amber, vanilla, and benzoin, with a subtle musky, almost honeyed undertone. The olive tree adds an intriguing, woody depth, preventing it from leaning too gourmand.
