Scent Profile
Composition
Timeline
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
A winter perfume through and through - made for cold, dark months.
Best Occasions
Its rich, potent character, especially early on, makes it less suited for a close-quarters office environment. However, its sophisticated and sensual allure positions it perfectly for dates and formal events, though its intimate sillage on some wearers makes it versatile for casual, close encounters.
