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.

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

Unwrap a vibrant burst of juicy red currant and sweet raspberry, sharpened by a hint of spicy pink pepper and intriguing saffron. The heart unfolds into a lush bouquet of dewy rose, delicate jasmine, and creamy magnolia, creating a rich, feminine core. This opulent floral-fruity blend then settles into a warm, inviting base of creamy vanilla, adding a smooth and comforting depth that lingers beautifully.
