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 Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its powerful sillage and rich, dense accords make it less suitable for office environments, as noted for its potential to overwhelm. However, the elegance and sensual nature of the white florals and amber are perfectly suited for date nights and formal events, though some find it a bit much for casual wear.

About

Rouge Malachite opens with a warm, spicy flourish of pink pepper and clary sage, quickly embracing a heart of lush tuberose, jasmine, and ylang-ylang. The creamy white florals are deepened by cashmeran and a rich benzoin, adding a slightly resinous, almost edible quality. It settles into a luxurious amber base, leaving an elegant, indolic trail that's both refined and a touch overtly seductive.
