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.

About

Opens with a subtle dash of violet and peppery juniper, swiftly moving into a decadent heart where creamy toffee and warm cinnamon blend with herbal lavender and sage. The drydown is a rich, enveloping embrace of vanilla, amber, tonka bean, and a soft hint of suede, giving it a smooth, gourmand-ish finish that lasts.
