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

Private Code opens with a rich, dark burst of sour cherry and juicy plum, quickly joined by the leathery nuance of osmanthus and a hint of frankincense. As it settles, a sweet, resinous date note emerges, intertwined with soft leather and a subtle rose, deepened by earthy iris. The base truly shines with warm, smoky oud, benzoin, and incense, wrapped in a smooth tolu balsam and musk, creating a luxurious and enigmatic trail.
