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:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its poor longevity and subtle sillage make it ideal for office wear and casual outings where subtlety is key. It's not assertive enough for a date or formal event, but its refreshing nature is quite suitable for post-sport use.

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

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Imagine a brisk, bright burst of lemon and petitgrain, sharp and invigorating like a freshly zested fruit. This vibrant opening mellows into a delicate floral heart, hinting at lily-of-the-valley and linden. The journey concludes with a subtle, clean musk, leaving a soft and understated trail. It's a clean, sophisticated take on citrus, leaning crisp rather than overtly sweet or complex.
