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

Riwaya Chapter I opens with a bright kick of bergamot dancing alongside exotic ylang-ylang and warming cardamom, creating an invitingly spiced aura. As it settles, luscious red fruits mingle with the sensual sweetness of caramel and the earthy undertones of patchouli, weaving a sumptuous heart that allures with every breath. The base reveals a rich tapestry of musk and amber, complemented by the woodsy notes of guaiac and the grounding presence of oakmoss, making this fragrance feel both mysterious and sophisticated.
