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:
Spring
Also Works:
Summer Fall

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its moderate sillage and 'soapy' clean aspect make it suitable for casual wear or even a subdued date night, though its intensity means going light for the office. While elegant, its overtly floral and powdery character might feel a bit out of place for modern formal events.

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

  • Geraniol from Rose

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

The top is light and floral, with lily of the valley, violet and freesia. The heart adds rose, carnation and mimosa for a fuller bouquet. The base is musk, sandalwood, iris, peach and vanilla, which makes it soft, powdery and slightly sweet. It is a traditional floral scent that stays gentle throughout.
