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.

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.

Other declarable allergens

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

This one makes itself known immediately with a rich, dark burst of rose and saffron, quickly joined by an assertive leather note that dominates the heart. Beneath it, earthy patchouli adds depth, while a warm, resinous amber and creamy vanilla provides a smooth, lingering dry-down. It's opulent, a bit animalic, and undeniably intense, conjuring images of desert nights and fine leather goods.
