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

Its amber, citrus and musky composition leans towards spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date
Also Works:
Casual Formal

Its bold, slightly animalic and musky character makes it better suited for nights out or intimate settings than a typical office environment. While it has some fresh elements, its overall warmth and distinctiveness lean towards more social 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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

L’Ascension opens with a sharp, sparkling burst of bergamot, quickly joined by an elegant white floral heart of jasmine. As it settles, a warm, golden amber accord emerges, enveloped by a soft, slightly powdery musk. There's a subtle animalic undercurrent adding depth, ensuring it’s not just another floral-citrus, but something with a bit more bite.
