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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

Charm opens with a distinctly powdery iris, reminiscent of candied violets, brightened by a whisper of bergamot. This gives way to a sophisticated heart of smoky guaiac wood and incense, balanced by a fresh, green tea note. The dry-down settles into a comforting base of earthy patchouli, creamy vanilla, and a soft, clean musk. Overall, it's a woody floral with a powdery, almost sweet, undertone.
