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.

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli

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

Imagine a sophisticated dessert - that's the vibe here. It opens with a delicate rose and bright neroli, soon giving way to a warm, spicy heart. The base is an opulent affair, where rich praline and vanilla intertwine with supple leather and a deep woodiness, all grounded by tonka bean. It's sweet, but never cloying, with a luxurious depth.
