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:
Summer

A summer scent - airy and clear, designed for hot weather.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its unique and assertive character, combining strong white florals with a dark, inky base, makes it a less suitable choice for the casual everyday or office. However, it truly shines in evening settings or formal events where its distinctive aroma ensures you make an impression.

About

Téméraire opens with a vibrant, spicy kick of cardamom and clove, quickly leading into a lavish heart of tuberose, jasmine, and iris. This opulent white floral bouquet is given an edgy, contemporary twist by a dark ink note in the base, complemented by the leathery, smoky facets of cade and the resinous warmth of benzoin, creating a compelling contradiction of clean and gritty.
