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:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Also Works:
Date Formal

Its exceptional strength and unique, often challenging profile make it entirely unsuitable for office wear or casual settings. The dramatic sillage and heavy accords feel more at home in formal or sophisticated evening events, though its unwearable nature for some means it's best reserved for personal enjoyment.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • 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 sharp, medicinal burst of galbanum and bergamot, quickly enveloped by warm, fiery cinnamon and myrrh. The heart ushers in aromatic clary sage and a touch of styrax, while the rich base of incense, benzoin, and tobacco smoulders, creating a dark, resinous, almost liturgical depth. Hints of sandalwood and tonka bean add a subtle creaminess, preventing it from becoming too dry.
