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
Also Works:
Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Casual

Its moderate longevity and sillage make it suitable for daytime wear, including some office environments if applied lightly. The sweet, feminine character, especially the 'daytime fairground' vibe, makes it a great choice for casual outings and dates, but it's likely too playful for formal settings.

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

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

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

Opens with a bright, juicy burst of clementine, quickly joined by a soft, creamy coconut that rounds out the initial citrus. The heart reveals a playful candy apple sweetness, intertwined with the lush, slightly heady aroma of gardenia. It settles into a warm, comforting base of musky sandalwood, providing a smooth and elegant finish.
