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 Fall Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its sweet and boozy nature, combined with moderate projection for the first hour and then becoming a skin scent, makes it perfect for date nights and evening wear. While enjoyable, it might be too prominent for an office setting and is certainly not suited for sport.

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

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot

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 lively burst of fresh ginger and bergamot, leading quickly into the star of the show: a rich, syrupy maninka fruit note. This tropical sweetness is complemented by a hint of smooth liquor and grounded by a deep, warm amber base, creating a cosy, inviting aura that lingers.
