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.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

Its citrus, woody and aromatic composition leans towards spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual
Also Works:
Office Formal

Its balanced citrus and woody accords, alongside moderate performance, make it versatile for most settings. It's too refined for active sports, while its distinctive character might be a bit much for very formal, understated events.

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

  • Rose geranium Pelargonium Graveolens Oil from Geranium

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

It kicks off with a vibrant, zesty punch of grapefruit and orange, like a freshly squeezed juice on a summer morning. This bright opening soon settles, welcoming a sharp, spicy heart of pepper and geranium, adding a sophisticated edge. The dry-down reveals an earthy, woody base with vetiver, patchouli, and cedar, softened by a touch of benzoin, lending it a grounding, warm finish. It's a journey from bright citrus to grounded woods.
