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.

Performance issues mean it won't cut it in the office where lasting power matters; however, it shines in casual settings and dates due to its unique blend of inviting notes. Its subtle charm lends itself to more relaxed, informal situations rather than formal occasions.

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.

Other declarable allergens

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender

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

l'étiquette opens with a bold puff of smoky tobacco intertwined with sharp galbanum and a crisp hit of juniper. As it settles, waves of lavender create a cool, inviting heart, complemented by earthy cypress-together forming an aromatic tapestry that feels both modern and classic. The dry down reveals a warm embrace of iris, powdery tonka bean, and soft cashmeran, giving you a luxurious finish that's more sophisticated than you might expect from a typically casual scent. It's a fragrance that teeters on the edge of edgy and elegant.
