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.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Also Works:
Date

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it ideal for office wear and casual outings, as it's present but not overwhelming. While some find it suitable for dates, its understated character might not be bold enough for formal events or energetic sports.

About

Desert opens with a bright burst of citrus, where zesty mandarin and bergamot provide an invigorating initial kick. This soon mellows into a heart of aromatic neroli and sage, subtly spiced by saffron. The dry-down reveals a smooth, comforting base of rich tobacco and creamy tonka bean, softened by beeswax, creating a slightly sweet, approachable warmth. The oud note is present but largely understated, blending into the background rather than dominating.
