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.

About

Opens with a delicate, yet distinct, bitter almond note, brightened by a whisper of petitgrain citrus. The heart blooms into a sophisticated white floral bouquet of jasmine and orange blossom, honeyed and soft. This exquisite blend settles into a luscious, sweet vanilla and warm, resinous woods of sandalwood, guaiac wood, and a grounding touch of incense. Powdery and nutty undertones weave throughout, creating an ethereal and comforting aura.
