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
Also Works:
Spring

Built on aromatic, warm spicy and leather - a composition that sits best in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent projection and distinct animalic-leather profile make it too intense for most office environments, but it shines in formal settings or on a bold evening date. This is an attention-grabbing scent, not one for blend-in casual wear or physical activity.

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

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Clove Eugenia Caryophyllus Flower Oil from Clove
  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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 an aromatic, slightly bitter hit from artemisia and clary sage, brightened by a whisper of bergamot. The heart quickly deepens with a warm, earthy patchouli, spiced with clove and a green touch of geranium. The real drama unfolds in the base: an animalic growl of civet, smoothed by supple leather, and rooted in a classic chypre oakmoss, leaving a lasting, lingering impression.
