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 Fall
Also Works:
Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

With moderate longevity and sillage, it's versatile enough for most settings. However, some find its opening quite strong, making it less ideal for a formal office environment, but suitable for casual wear or an intimate date where its comforting warmth can shine.

About

Hazel opens with a trio of citrus, mandarin, lime and bergamot, for a sharp, bright start. The heart brings iris, fig leaf, neroli and ylang-ylang, mixing powdery softness with a green, leafy edge. The base of musk, vetiver and tonka bean is smooth and lightly woody. The scent moves from zesty to floral to a soft, skin-close finish. It is a modern unisex eau de parfum that feels clean and polished rather than loud.
