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

Red Iceberg opens with a burst of bright, juicy citrus - think zesty bergamot, mandarin, and tangerine. This fresh introduction quickly mellows, giving way to a rich, wild, and elegant heart dominated by creamy orange blossom, supported by the exotic sweetness of ylang-ylang and an intriguing earthy hint of patchouli. The drydown settles into a soft, slightly less sweet base of warm amber, clean musk, and grounding cedar, offering a luxurious and inviting finish.
