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

Its powdery, violet floral and vanilla composition leans towards spring and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual Formal
Also Works:
Office

Its soft, powdery nature makes it elegant for dates and suitable for casual wear without being too loud. While not a powerhouse, its distinct character might be a bit much for a formal office setting if over-sprayed.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bitter almond Benzaldehyde from Almond
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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 cloud of violet and iris powder, delicately sweetened with juicy red berries and a whisper of vanilla. Underneath, a creamy almond cake batter note adds depth, while the clean musk keeps it airy. A touch of anise lends an unexpected, intriguing twist, making it feel both familiar and uniquely enchanting.
