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

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Sport

Its moderate projection and fresh, clean character make it suitable for office wear and versatile enough for casual day use, especially in warmer weather. It's not heavy enough for formal events and while refreshing, its mineral depth might be too unusual for a date night. It's great for day wear and could be used for light sport due to its refreshing nature.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • 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

Mosaic opens with a sharp, almost biting burst of bergamot and petitgrain, quickly joined by a distinctive 'wet stone' or mineral accord that sets it apart. This initial crispness evolves, as cedar and oakmoss emerge to ground the fragrance with an earthy, slightly bitter depth. It settles into a cool, green, and uniquely textural scent, like fresh water running over ancient, moss-covered stones.
