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.

Its moderate projection and sophisticated, warm spicy and amber accords make it suitable for formal events and dates, where its elegance can shine without being overpowering. It's less ideal for casual or sporty settings due to its refined nature and a performance profile that leans towards intimate rather than robust.

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.

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

Opens with an intriguing herbal and subtly sweet immortelle, hinting at something special. As it develops, a warm, soft leather emerges, intertwined with a gentle, non-churchy incense. The drydown brings a rich combination of tonka bean and benzoin, creating a smooth, balsamic warmth with a touch of powdery sweetness that’s both comforting and sophisticated.
