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

Paradise Moon opens with a burst of sweet, almost candied osmanthus, delivering a peachy, apricot-like fruitiness that's both bright and slightly tart. As it settles, a warm, resinous labdanum emerges, adding a honeyed depth and a hint of a "smelly in a good way" animalic quality. The leather, often subtle or even undetectable to some, eventually weaves through, providing an intriguing backbone that grounds the fruity florals with a sophisticated, slightly nutty and greasy edge.
