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 Summer Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Built on aromatic, fresh spicy and citrus - a composition that sits best in spring, summer and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh and clean aromatic profile makes it ideal for daily casual wear, and it's perfectly suitable for the office due to its non-offensive nature. While pleasant, it might lack the gravitas for formal events or the intrigue needed for a romantic date night.

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.

About

Aurum Essence bursts open with an invigorating splash of sea water, brightened by zesty bergamot and grapefruit. The aromatic heart introduces a sharp, almost metallic mineral facet, with a kick of fiery pepper and the soothing herbal touch of lavender and geranium. It finally settles into a clean, musky base with earthy vetiver and warm cedar, leaving a sophisticated, lingering trail that's undeniably modern.
